Re: Fw190 image
Hello Pilot,
This is an expected poor reproduction of the well-known and habitually-purloined photograph taken by my late friend, Merle C. Olmsted, post-war at Neubiberg. As suggested above, the aircraft in question is Ar-War-built Fw 190 F-8/R1 (WNr. 586875) 2+ - yellow/or green, outlined black, probably last with II./SG10. The color of its rudder is still an open question; is its darker gray value versus its yellow cowl band the result of being cocked to one side, or is it another color? Regarding its camouflage colors, I have no reason to believe that it is in anything but 74/75/76. Respectfully, Steve Sheflin |
