Hi all

Well as everyone is aware a Ju88 and He111 were recovered from Josvatnet, Norway in the summer.

Over the last few weeks there has been a lot of discussion between various people, groups, experts on the colours (privately, not on TOCH or elsewhere).

The differences relate to 'opinions' within Germany and elsewhere and what is being seen in Norway.

We know, both aircraft were painted 70/71/65 at least prior to the invasion of Norway.

The difficult part is whether they were repainted prior to the invasion of Norway and /or operations over the North Sea. The possibility is there that the upper colours were repainted to either a single or combination of two greys.

Also the underside of the Ju88 in places was a very light blue/white colour which overpainted the RLM65. (More like RLM76)

Is there any more evidence that the greys were at least being used. I need historical documents/references/colour photos as at the moment it is what we see verses what we should have according to general opinion!

Anyone help!

regards

Mark
