Re: Me 262 B3+AL Question

Jean-Yves,

Thanks for the additional information. Though sadly illegible, the position of the werknummer on the aircraft, the size / dimensions of the digits, and distance between each digit can assist in the machine’s possible identity, or at least Werknummerserien.

As well, in the summer of 1944 KG51 received many Me262s finished in the now highly inappropriate grey 74/74 scheme (from the 170xxx and 130xxx series), and took it upon themselves to quickly alter it with an application of a dark green to better improve ground concealment.

Cheers,

David
