Finally I can get into my new group Build......
Time to add another Checkerband aircraft to my collection, another on the list for quite some time...
The subject of this build will be Black 1 an Me262A-1a of 8/KG(J)6 carrying the Red and Black checkerbands on the rear fuselage.
This aircraft number is odd as the Staffel Colour was in fact Red.

This Me262 shows evidence of extensive modification and replacement of component parts with the main one appearing to be the entire Nose section.

There are only 2 images of this aircraft, the first partially obscured behind 2 other Me262's and the other partially dismantled and missing it's wings….

Ref : Both images come from the excellent JaPo publication Messerschmitt Me262s of KG & KG(J) Units.
