Re: Some enlarged and 'tweaked' known photos of Me 262s

42. An air-to-air photo of Major Erich Hohagen flying the now Me 262 A-1a (two white gun rectangles) W.Nr. 170071 White 2 of III./EJG 2 at Lechfeld on 15 November 1944. (See O'Connell, pp. 54-55.) Note the natural metal forward nacelle cowl characteristic of aircraft of III./EJG 2.

43. A line-up of aircraft of III./EJG 2: Me 262 A-1a White 10 possibly W.Nr. 110926; White 9 possibly W.Nr. 111617 and White 6 possibly 170054. As sheer speculation, these three may be the aircraft at the far end of the line-up of kaulquappe-tailed Me 262s at Lechfeld.

44. Me 262 A-1a W. 110956 White 17 captured at Lechfeld at the end of April 1945.

45. This is a colour photo of the fuselage of Me 262 A-1a W.Nr. 110530 White 26 of 10./EJG 2 that made a notlandung on 6 February 1945 northeast of Landshut. (See O'Connell, p.85).

46. Me 262 A-1a W.Nr. 111857 was found at Innsbruck-Hotting in May 1945. It had been listed as with JV44 at München-Riem on 26 April 1945. However the natural metal forward nacelle cowls indicate that it was originally with III./EJG 2 and the photo shows where the numeral on the nose was painted over. O'Connell, p. 140, suggests it had been White 5. "Ferried from München-Riem by Obstlt. Heinz Bär on 1 or 2 May 1945."
