Re: Me 262 photo + Fw 190's +

I would set the location for photo # 1 at Innsbruck-Hötting looking southeast. The jet being parked almost parallel to the poplar alley. Seems to be WNr 500490 (jet intakes natural metal, upper jet cover partially aluminum, too)
Interesting is the plane in the background (Noorduyn Norseman?). Must belong to the group of "bi-planes" appearing on some photographs partly hidden by WNr 500490 in the foreground and E8+GL half-hidden in the barn.
# 2 is from Hötting, too, imo, looking soutwest across the Inn towards St.Blasienberg (behind the barn). The Fw 190 placed in front of a different barn than E8+GL. Maybe the barn in the background of Nick Beale´s NSG 9 opus p.182 top, right.

Regards

Roland
