I don't know... maybe it should be. The picture I used show no tailband and the letter A is as on the skin blue...ish. Maybe the modeller who painted the modell I used as reference, got it wrong?

It seems like there's a bunch of different versions and pilots of the a Stuka with T6+AD. One of which have a yellow tailband. If you guys find anything about this T6-AD and what it really looks like and who the pilot was, I'll change the skin accordingly.

I'm very suspect about the yellow nose and rudder on that plane. Can you post the reference images/info you used for the skin?

Will do. I'm on my work PC at the moment, but will do this when I'm on my gaming rig.

1st this is a G-1 not a G-2 and it says nothing about 'Stab 3./StG 2'. Seems like I've accidentally fu**ed things up... Not sure what to do about this or where I got the info from. Strange. :classic_wacko:

T6+AD is indeed the fuselage code reserved for the commander of III/StG 2 (Note that in Luftwaffe nomenclature, Roman numerals indicate the Gruppe and Arabic numerals indicate the individual staffel. Officially, they are never used interchangeably.) The scheme seems to be mostly based on how their Ju 87B's looked during the Balkan campaign in April-May 1941. That's pretty much the only place you see yellow cowls on Stukas.

Great work on Wurmhellers bird.

It looks fantastic

 

Just one note.

I think you forgot the lower cowling. It should be yellow too, or?

 

Thanks

Bf 109E-4, W.Nr 1480, Code: Red 3, Staffel/Gruppe: II./JG 3 'Udet'

flown by: Gruppenadjutant Franz von Werra

'The famous Bf 109E-4 of II./JG 3 marked 'Red 3' (or often seen as 'Yellow 3' in other units but matching this description) was flown by Oberleutnant Franz von Werra.
Who famously crash-landed in Kent, England, in September 1940 during the Battle of Britain and became renowned for his subsequent escape attempts from POW camps'.

This skin should only be regarded as semi historical!
