Some photos of a FW 190 at Lechfeld with Me 262s in the background

[Karoband]

Good morning,

These photos were posted by 'Duggy' on the axis-and-allies-paintworks.com site. They were taken outside the hangar used by Watson's Whizzers. 'White 40' is probably the lone propeller aircraft seen in the panoramic view on p. 58 of Brown etal., Messerschmitt Me 262 Production & Arado Ar 234 Final Operations, JaPo 2012.

On the far right of this photo are a lineup of three Me 262s. The first is Me 262 A-1a/U3 W.Nr. 500853 'white surround 29'. Behind it is most likely the engineless Me 262 A-1a W.Nr. 110526 'white 15'. The third with light coloured rudder and engines is probably Me 262 V9 W.Nr. 130004 'VI+AD'.

On the right of this photo is most likely 'V078' whose upper tail, including the werknummer, was removed and attached to 'V303'.

Probably another view of 'V078' showing rear mounting for the BMW 003.

On the right, perhaps is the forlorn 'V303' without its nose.

best regards,
