Acc. to Russ Snaddon, the yellow 4 is only temporarely applied to be removeble as soon a s new data shows up. RS himself stated the identity of 112372 as "replacement for the one of the damaged Me 262, found in Twente, NL". The intentional # of Me 262 ferrying from Fassberg to RAE was 5. One was damaged upon landing at Lübeck or Schleswig. The replacement for that damaged one (a yellow 7, IIRC) was 112372.
