Re: HE-219 Colors at Udvar-Hazy Museum
Hi,
I was advised a year or so ago that they were retaining original paint finishes etc on their restored aircraft where they would be concealed after assembly, as a future source of authentic reference. I presume looking at the very good photos that this is exactly what they have done. HTH David |

Re: HE-219 Colors at Udvar-Hazy Museum
just to confirm this, i have the photos of when the wingroots were first uncovered, and yes they have not overpainted them, so you are looking at the original paint scheme.

Re: HE-219 Colors at Udvar-Hazy Museum
What about the cockpit section of He 219 stored in Prague?
I have heard the rumour that some pieces of UHU exists in one of Czech museums. Could any of You confirm that? Kuba |

Re: HE-219 Colors at Udvar-Hazy Museum
Last year I had the opportunity to visit the museum at Kbely including at least two storage areas and I couldn't identify any He 219 remains. I did see several Siebel 204 remains and a section of a Ju 52.
Would love to hear that more He 219 parts have survived though! /Mikael www.axisaircraft.com |
