Re: Heinkel He 162 upper wingcolour Mystery
Hi Simon!
Here you can clearly see how the rebuilt was quick done to make this He 162 some kind of gate entrance, when yellow6 and white3 also moved to Kassel stay without wings nor tails.  On the other side for Jean-Claude Mermet, a French author, Wk.N.120097 is actually "red3". I hope you have been conviced this time  Note also that the official He 162 camouflage pattern is from 18 January 1945 according to M.Ullmann, but at Leck only no less than five different camouflage could be found... So splinter camo over upper wing surface look very possible even if the one from Ottawa is possibly unreal... Help from Ottawa Museum restoration team would be necessary on this point! Cheers.
