20. From this photo, taken on 9 May 1945, we see that the second He 162 in the line-up on the left side is a "20" but has none of the nose rings seen on other double-digit aircraft. In the background is a "Red 7" with a "fox-head"
wappen on its starboard nose.
Wolfgang Wollenweber in
Thunder over the Reich, p. 138, identifies the second aircraft as "White 20", W.Nr. 120095 and "Red 7" as W.Nr. 310012. However, Richard A. Franks, in his book, p. 18, while also identifies "White 20" as W.Nr. 120095, on p.22 gives "Red 7" as W.Nr. 310005.

21. This photo of He 162s at Leck was taken after the arrival of the British, but note the changes. The taxiway is missing, the lack of shadows to the left indicates it is not beside "White 4" and the He 162 next to "20" is not "Red 7". Franks, on p. 15, incorrectly identifies this one as W.Nr. 120321 (copied by Kurmark-Antik), but it is indeed W.Nr. 120231, unpainted "White 6", as id'ed by the putty streaks on the nose below the tarp.
In this photo, note the clear view of the red cowl on the BMW 003 nacelle.

22. This photo is almost identical to the one above. Note the lack of black surround usually seen on white numerals. To my eye there is a white surround to a yellow centre in these numerals making it "Yellow 20".

23. "Yellow 20" is seen in this photo to be in a hangar at Leck just before it was disassembled. It was allocated the Air Ministry number "63" and shipped overland by train and then by ship to RAE Farnborough in England, arriving on 10 August 1945.

24. Seen here at the Birmingham Civic Centre in September 1945, British markings have been replaced by fake German ones. "At No. 6 MU for Home Census of Aircraft on the 21st March 1946; struck off charge at No. 6 MU 14 August 1947 (scrapped)", Franks, p. 21.
