I'm sorry to throw a spanner into the works.
Some comments on the above examples of the same photo:
1. The
werknummer is not discernable.
2. The "
Rote 11" is small, in the same position and size as
Rote 8.
3. It has three white numerals on the nose, in the same position as
Rote 8, but smaller. These numerals may perhaps be 761, but are definitely
not 378.
4. It has the later-style taillight, as does 305 and 306, but unlike the early-style of 110635.
General comments:
The
werknummernblock 110361 to 110385 were completed between 20 September and 15 October 1944 according to Ordelheide's flugbuch. At this time the early-style taillight was still being applied as seen in a photo of 110371.
I have to conclude either
A) The three numerals on the noses of the B-1a/U1s were not
werknummern,
or
B)
Rote 11 was not 110378
or
C) There were two
Rote 11s.
Best regards,
Jim
