Bf 109E-4 of Stab II./JG 51

Hi,

Attached is a scan of Bf 109E-4 of Stab II./JG 51 from Spring 1941 in the Channel area. It was flown by Gruppenkomandeur Hptm. Fözö. I have two questions regarding the colour scheme because of preparation of a side view of this machine for Revi magazine.

* Are the Abschussbalken painted in usual black color or in seldom red color ?
* Nose part of the machine (to entering edge of wing) was very probably yellow as other Gruppe Messerschmitts bur how about spinner - was it in black/white painting ?
Your comments are much appreciated.

Regards,
