Profile of a JG 301's Fw190D-9

[Schlageter]

Hello all,

I discovered a magnificent profile of a Fw190D-9 from 5./JG 301 made by Claes Sundin:

Is there any picture of the real "White 7"? I can only recall a Ta152 from JG 301 bearing that number and which was found at Stendal, not at Leck! And would not a white bar on the RVB mean that the aircraft belonged to I. Gruppe, in this case 1. Staffel?

Best and thanks in advance for every pointer!

I have not seen any photo of this plane published anywhere, so I guess it's a speculative scheme.

Hi Micke D

YOU haven't. I'll be surprised Claes didn't!.

Regards, Franck.

But I must admit that I know it did happen once

odd isn't it as II. gruppe had a horizontal red bar or none at all.

Hello all
I sincerely believe that this is Claes' fun project or something similar. W.Nr. on the profile is clearly the one that falls between two known batches (2nd & 3rd) of the Mimetall production & I am sure that the artist is aware of this.
I haven't seen this profile in any of books by Claes and this in a way supports my idea...
Best,
Milos
