Re: Kommando Nowotny 262 Tail pattern?

In the book of Smith and Creek, Me 262 vol. 2 (German edition) there are several photos of lined up planes, showing the left side (pages 186 and following). Here the tail units from those planes which are visible, all seem to have an identical pattern. You can see at least 4 planes with this pattern: Weiße 1, Weiße 19, Weiße 4 and Weiße 3, the last one seems to be a bit weather-beaten. From "Weiße 4" there is also a photo from the right side, which shows a completely different pattern on the tail.
Hope this helps,
regards
Robert
