Re: eBAy: Captured german planes
Regarding the me 262 Rudi posted on pg. 343, the tonal contrast between the paint on the upper section of the fin and the paint on the rest of the upper surfaces is striking. Is it reasonable to assume that the upper section of the fin was a subcontracted part? The style of swastika is also rare, though not unheard of on Me 262s.

Hello Rudi,
The first and last photos in your Post #3484 are of the unmarked, Messerschmitt-Regensburg-built, Bf 109 G-14/AS (WNr. 785778). It was photographed by members of an unknown US AAA unit at Fl.Horst/Industriehafen Kölleda in 1945 (coordinates 51.189075 11.217209). Respectfully, Steve Sheflin |

Taking into consideration that the tail is in shadow in bright sunlight, the tonal discrepancy may be deceiving. The Me 262 below is the only one I could find that closely matches the camo pattern. http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=687 http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=688 http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/album....&pictureid=689 Does anyone recognize the buildings in the background of Rudy's picture?
