Aircraft in the photo is not the one in the profile. The text is not legible to even try and see what it says.

Post by: Devil 505 on February 02, 2017, 12:40:32 PM: It is indeed a real plane flown by Gunther Landt, but the scheme depicted is wrong. The grays seen in your pic represent RLM 75 gray/violet and RLM 77 light gray used together, but RLM 77 was used as a replacement for RLM 75. So the dark color would be dark green RLM 83. The question is whether the light color is RLM 75 or 77 - most depictions use 75. I'm leaning more towards 77.
