Re: Nice Me 262

@Sinisa,

I think you made a senseful summary of the difficulties to categorise correctly that plane. I really think we should have a better quality of the picture of this plane in order to better to which unit it belong. Perhaps the trees in the background could help to determine the location of the picture and so more precisely the unit.
Considering the black '11' on this plane, it is consistent with a known picture of Me262 black '1' od KG(J)6.
I realised also that the place of the Karoband on the fuselage is also worth to compare with other plane's pictures as is the size of the chequers, because there too there is huge difference, not to speak on which plane it appears (Bf109 or Me262)
In the past i made a comparision matrix, but it is well overdate now and has to be completely overhauled.
I will do it as soon as time permits...

@Nick,
Thanks for your clarification, but I feel more like Sinisa as this patch to be a large caliber gun hole which is, I admit, very similar in contour and in location of the KG(J)54 Totenkopf. But for me this comparision is not completely conclusive.
