Re: Questions concerning Me 262 Wn 112372 "Yellow 7"

Mushroom profil clearly depict 'white 7', unknown W.Nr., surrendered at Fassberg by G.Engler, as it was seen at Lubeck after his nose gear collapse on landing with W.Schrader on board.

I say unknown W.NR. since seems doubtfull that it was 110800 since it seems strange that Engler's 110800 'yellow9' from I./JG7 could have been repainted as 'white7' from III./JG7 when Engler joined Gefechtsverband Hogeback.

From Dan O'Connell book it seems that AM51 was white7 id for the ferry flight from Fassberg to Lubeck... But when W.Shrader broke the front landing gear on landing then AM51 id was given to W.Nr 112372 'red2' already waiting at Schleswig?
