Re: Some enlarged and 'tweaked' known photos of Me 262s
http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=951
130. No. 4 is Me 262 A-1a W.Nr. 110766 Red 1 of 2./KG 51 (listed as being with JV 44 at München-Riem on 26 April 1945). This is a photo of its original situation at Hotting. Note the intact canopy and nose gear, two white gun rectangles and nose colours, the white line indicating I. Gruppe and the red tip indicating 2. Staffel. http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=952 131. This photo shows how Red 1 was dragged to its place beside White 12. Note the lack of bomb racks. It can be readily identified by its forward splayed nose gear. http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=953 132. A close-up of Red 1's tail shows its werknummer. Note the late production tail light bulb. http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=954 133. No. 5 is Me 262 A-1a White 12 (W.Nr. unknown to me). Note its collapsed nosewheel and flattened nose. http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=955 134. A view of the starboard side of White 12 shows damage to the engine nacelle and lower nose. Note the over-painted nose cone and the small, dak-coloured nose cap similar to that of W.Nr. 500531 at Hörsching-Linz |
