Howard - follow this link to my question about the yellow 190 last November. Christer is absolutely right, it was his book that finally cleared the mystery for me.

The above link is from the old forum - welcome to this one by the way !
Basically I have come across many sites showing the yellow 190, plastic and r/c. I've also seen a dodgy colour profile in an old book that I binned when I realised it was tosh. Major Graf's fw 190 was however very colourful - I wonder if the largely yellow and red nose has been mistaken for the aircraft being generally 'yellow'.
BUT - who knows for sure?! I'm going to look for some pics to post for you and well I might just build one for the hell of it.
Cheerio,
Andy.
ps. there are some great characters on this forum, respected authors mostly, but also some really great blokes and one or two girlies who love to share their knowledge and help with research.
Later!
