Hs126 rather than a Fi156

Regarding captured German aircraft on display in the UK, I thought this old thread might be helpful.

#422: So the seller got it wrong. Dan O'Connell's book doesn't give a location for this a/c.

Me 262: Anybody knows the WNr of this one?

Thanks for those Rudi. Though heavily pixelated, the Bf 109 seems to be Bf 109 K-4 W.Nr. 334 ... "Schwarzer Winkel kleine 1", Lt. Ernst Dieter Bernhard, Stab III./JG 53.
Low on fuel after flying an interception mission between 17h25 and 18h50 on 19 April 1945, Lt. Bernhard elected to land at Kaufbeuren to refuel. The starboard landing gear refused to lower and despite, Berhnard trying to pull it free with sharp pull ups, he finally had to belly land his brand new machine. He did this very smoothly, ending 50 meters away from the airfield's hangar.

Another shots of this machine is Prien and Rodeike 1995, p. 176. You have also the same aircraft in colour here:

Thanks Guys,

#423 no WNr. known but place is Starnberg. We can see Starnberg's lake in background.
#427. Yep.... Only problem, this photo depict a "Winkel Schwarze (or another colour) 2", not "Winkel schwarze 1"...

Cheers
Franck.

Correct; it is a "Winkel kleine 2" indeed. It is thus the third Stab JG 53 Bf 109 K-4 known. Besides Lt Bernhard's "kleine 1"found at Kaufbeuren, we have also "Winkel kleine 5" found at Vilseck:
