174. Like W.Nr. 111685 9K+FH, white "9" was dragged south along the autobahn and is seen among the other aircraft assembled for scrapping at the Brunnthal collection yard. Note the similar damage to the base of the tail fin. The rear fuel tank lying beneath it is likely from white surround "34" whose port wing is seen lower right.

175. This picture shows the nose of white "9" at Brunnthal. Photos of both sides of the fuselage shoe that the "white 9" was painted over a previous dark numeral. Also, like 111685, this aircraft has no white gun rectangles.

176. O'Connell on page 128 states that 111617 was fitted with an experimental wooden tail. However, when it was discovered by the Ameicans, it had standard camouflage on its tail with the werknummer under the hakenkreuz, but a white rudder with a standard late-production tail light bulb had replaced the kaulquappe rudder.
