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

322. At München-Riem, on 26 April 1945, W.Nr. 110836 was listed as having been given over to JV44 from "I./KG 51". It had been retrieved and flown first to Prag-Rusin and then to Saaz by Hptm. Rudolf Abrahamczik. Brown, etal., p. 66, have the staffelkapitän landing back at München-Riem at 14:30 hours on 8. May 1945. O'Connell, p. 114, puts it at 14.40 and Horn does not give a time.

323. This photo shows that W.Nr. 110836 has the red tail tip with thin white line combined with red nose cap and thin white ring indicating that it is an aircraft of KG 51's remaining unit, 2. Staffel of I./Gruppe. The black "L" obviously covers a previous identity as the geschwader code "9K" and staffel letter and final small black "L" are clealy painted over. W.Nr. 110836 also seems to have gunshot residue at its gun ports. The rear assembly joint tape seems to have been replaced and re-camouflaged but the excess amount of oil seepage from the starboard engine has not been attended to.
