Re: Some enlarged and 'tweaked' photos of He 162s

Hi Andy,

Richard A. Franks, Airframe Album 13: The Heinkel He 162, (2018), p. 62 gives:

"W./Nr. 310012 - Flown 06/03/45, allocated to 3./JG 1 (Possibly 'Yellow 5'), found by British forces at Leck in May 1945, presumed scrapped there as not shipped to UK."

Moreover, both Wollenweber, p. 138 and Franks, p. 21, concur that "Yellow 6" was W.Nr. 120235.

May I ask, what is your source for W. Nr. 310012 being found at Kassel as "Yellow 6"?

best regards,

Jim
