Hello!
I would like to built a model of this aircraft. I would like your opinion about the nose. Is it yellow? Thank You Christian

Looks like standard overall 02 grey to me. I presume that is exhaust stain on the leading edge of the wheel cover.

Re: Ar 96 colour sceme!
Hi, Christian...
I'm inclined to agree that this is probably an overall RLM02 colour scheme. However, if you're looking for something a little more eye-catching, the attached can be found at http://wp.scn.ru/, under World War II 'Others' category. Select 'Arado Ar96' from the list on the left side and you'll be shown a nationalitly list of all the Ar96 users, and on the right side, click on the page number to access the individual colour plates. Thumbnail shows a machine apparently based (or seen) at Tilsit-Weinhofen, 1944. Regards... Last edited by obdl3945; 9th April 2012 at 05:28.

Re: Ar 96 colour sceme!
Hello!
Thank You both for your help! The pilot of this A/C was not quite sure but believed too, that it was grau overall except the underside, which was RLM 65 lightblue. A friend has told me, that this one was coded DC + XL, so now i am building it to give the pilot as a present. Best wishes Christian
