Re: Some enlarged and 'tweaked' known photos of Me 262s

On page 58 of Brown etal., Messerschmitt Me 262 Production & Arado Ar 234 Final Operations, (JaPo, 2012), there is an aerial frontal view of the Whizzers' hangar showing most of the Me 262s that were used as spares along with the some of their identities. The exceptions were W.Nr.s 110956 and 113363 out of camera range to the left.

By chance I came across a short video segment that shows the situations of those on the left hand side of the hangar. Please excuse these very blurry screenshots that are taken from Wings of the Luftwaffe-Me-262. The brief sequence starts at 37:06. I include the following screenshots to illustrate the placement of the Me 262s on the left side.

199. The cameraman is standing on the road in front of the Whizzers' hangar to the left of it and will pan through 90 degrees to the right. Seen here are Me 262 A-1a/U3 W.Nr. 500539 white-surround "33", left, and Me 262 V10 W.Nr. 130005 "VI+AE" both on their noses. Out of camera range immediately to the left was Me 262 V11 170074 "V074" and further off were Me 262 A-1s W.Nr. 110956 white "17"+S and W.Nr. 113363.
