JG 301 or ... JG 5 ?
I started a conversation with a member of this forum about the JG 301 markings and came to mention the FW 190 "black 9" with the "wrong" RV band (red/yellow instead of yellow/red). LLv34 then mentionned the fact that these planes could be from JG5 (faded black/yellow really looks like red/yellow on a BW pic, doesn't it ?). after looking at the pics from the actual planes I seem to be lost ... has anyone heard of this "inversion" ? do we have actual evidence that when getting their planes from JG11 the guys actually painted the red band on the wrong side ?
