-Lancaster G-George, this a/c served with 460 sqn RAAF and flew 90 mission over Europe before flying to Australia for a war loan tour
great shots Wildcat.
the Bf 109G is from the ETO in two tone greys/spots, the underwing looks as a replacement as well as the almost white under engine carrier though late 1945 RLM 76 blue was now an almost white on late war 109's. yes the Komet is from JG 400, the 262 Schwalbe who knows ? the red nose cone may represent it's service in a kampfgeschwader unit like KG 51 or 54.
