[NC900A8]

Bonjour Pascal and all,

Thus by looking at the site of Memorial-Flight-Aassociation, you saw that the wings are entirely in dark green RLM70 (I wrote by error 71) and blue RLM65. These wooden wings come well from a subcontractor carpenter localised around the principal factory at Vienna –Mareinhe .
It is true that the principal aeronautical factories conformed to the new paintings required by the RLM, like the RLM81 and 82. But these large companies, by receiving their batches of new paintings, and to make economies, transferred their old paintings towards the small factories like carpenters..... which used them, even at the end of the war.
If you look at our site, you will find the photographs of two hoodings of the engine which are well in RLM81/82, therefore in conformity with the directive of camouflage of He 162, as my friend Ken Merrick in his last book tells it on the camouflages at “Classic books”. For our fuselage, it will be a surprise in the current of the year 2007!
This strange camouflage is, today, only avalable for our 120015, one of the first He 162 built at Marienhe.
For the 120076 and 120086, I hope the upper wings camouflage was painted in RLM82/81....the carpenter was perhaps different !
Also the air-entrance of 120086 she is in RLM02, like our 120015.
For me, the splinter camouflage on 120076 is Canadian, not German, same thing for the Chino’s 162.
Best regards from France,
Philippe
