"In the ninth photo from the top - panoramic view - can be seen the tail of an Me262 with the last three digits of its Werknummer visible: "704". The position and style of the Werknummer is common to 111000-series aircraft, thus its full WNr. was 111704. The fifteenth image is poorly reproduced, but study of the original reveals that its code number was "White 7" painted on the fuselage behind the cockpit. On the April 26, 1944 Me262 Werknummer list for Munchen-Riem ("JV44 List"), there is an entry for "111074" under the JV44 heading. There is no such number for this series and I believe that this must have been a transcription error. In all probability it should be 111704. If correct, then White 7, WNr.111704 is a JV44 aircraft that has yet to have been positively identified.
Cheers,
David"
