As memory serves most of the captured planes in the Norwey were airworthy. So these were transported by flight. If not it seems to be by the road transport.
Did Americans know how to fly German planes? What does it mean by ground transport? Did they fly planes from Norway to France?
 
The Watson's Whizzers unit was a group of special pilots whith a great experience in flying unknown planes. But there were German pilots and mechanics who helped them with getting to know how to fly the aircraft.

The ground transport means that the planes were transported with the lorries ( trucks ) or the trains.
These planes that could fly were flown from the Norway to the France.
 
Do you know a specialist in Iranian technology? I need information on this plane
 
As you may notice we are the World War 2 forum. So I don't know. Possible ARTESH could help but he wasn't here for almost a year. But if it can be useful it is an Iranian Su-24MK Fencer fighter-bomber aircraft.

Why did the Americans paint the tip of the Prado's tail yellow?
 
Whan I took closer look at the pics of the Jane and Snafu used by Americans I found that there wasn't any yellow at the fin+rudder tips. Also I have a doubt about the yellow strips on the periscopes. I think that is the light trick. It could be caused by either the sunlight ( the pic with both planes seen in Melun , France ) or it is an another colour than the yellow.
However even if the tips were of the yellow, the reason Americans painted them yellow would be still unknown. Perhaps these would be easier recoginzed while flying. But as I said there wan't any yellow colour there.
 
Do you know anything about night operations on German aircraft during the War?
I would like to know about night operations. carried out by German aviation
 
Unfortunately I don't. It is not possible to talk about that here. There are many books that covers the topic.
Actually , the Gallery section of the forum is not for disscussion on such topics but for images. If you want to find out something I suggest creatinga new thread in the Aviation section. I hope you may find there a help.

BTW .. the thread about the Ar 234 also should be started in a different section we have for the kind of topics about the aircraft camouflage etc.. Because it is not possible to move it as a whole one I had to leave it here.
