| Hi Erich, The only reason I'm looking for a real picture of the particular Red 6, is to get an idea about the routes on mottling for its camo. I'm planing to build a model for this. Only for that reason. So If you can help me, I would be grateful to u. Thanks, Alex |

| Hi, Erich, was the Me262 "Red6" flown by Fw Karl-Heinz Becher as well? If yes, the werk nummer of she should be 110306.Is that correct or it is a different aircraft?

| Aha, thanks, Erich. Why does everyone list these as being with 10./NJG 11? Were these just trainers and not used on Ops?

| understood.  But for the original question, could they represent the camo scheme for what he is looking for?

| note the diversity of the camo just between these three machines, the single seaters were painted in no specific order. we have it from Georg that his was painted overall very dark, but since we are going to cover his Bf 109G-6/AS from III./Jg 300 and his single seat hot rod jet in our book I will refrain from saying more. R. Bailey did a print of one of his mossie downings but it is pretty silly looking in our estimation, we actually found that the pilot of the Mossie bailed out successfully while the R/O was killed, several years ago we got both the victor and victim together for a small reunion and to relive the tragedy of the night..........it will be in the book

| Hi Guys thank you for your interest. Actually the only pictures I found, concern two artworks of Red 6 I'm looking for, Signed by Lt. Jorg Czypionka (Me262) - Lt.Hans H. Busch ( Me262) But as far as I can see, the upper camo is not the same for both of them The first one is Mottled with 82/81 on 76 the second one is Mottled with 82 / on 76 Which one is correct???   Thats why I need only one original photo... I can get out the proper camo! Last edited by akonti; 06-17-2008 at 06:47 AM. |
