Re: Heinkel He 162 upper wingcolour Mystery

Hi Simon !

I m probably not the best to reply but here is my feelling:

It's very probably 4 white more than yellow. 1/ It loks white on the color photo 2/ The diving eagle emblem is for the 1st Staffel and 1st Staffel had white digits 3/ Yellow 4 is visible on one Leck's photo and it doesnt have any black paint around the guns as white 4 have.

And the diving eagle is very probably red 1/ the tone is really the same as the one from the arrow 2/ This same white and red emblem was said to be found over W.Nr. 120015 under restoration in France.
