Wow!
Thank you everyone for your interpretations. Although the paint scheme of that Me 262 a/U3 in the colored photo is certainly similar to 110506 whose pic I posted from "Stormbirds", they are not the same. The squiggle pattern (size, color, etc) and base color of 110506's wings appear different from what is seen on the fuselage of 110506. In this sense especially, the other Me 262 does not completely represent a suitable basis for comparison. Agree or disagree? In any case, I think that in other respects the recon bird in the colored photo deserves a tremendous amount of attention and I'm glad you all have focused on it because it undeniably shares important similarities with 110506 (perhaps more than any other Me 262?)
I think it's fascinating that even though the photos are in color and seem high-quality, no one can agree on the colors! No one has advocated the possibility or likelihood that the colors of the recon bird might be the bomber colors, RLM 70, 71, and 65. I had always thought that commentators generally agreed those were the colors applied on the recon Me 262 in those colored photos. I see my assumption was mistaken.
Crimea River, your suggestion that the squiggles on the Me 262a/U3 in the colored photo are RLm 83 and 75 intrigues me. I hope you're right! That would seem possible to me as I understand that many bf 109s and Fw 190s were certainly painted in the 83/75 color combination. However, I've never heard of a single Me 262 painted in such a way (exceptions, of course, are always possible especially when ground crews paint the aircraft.) Crimea River (and everyone), do you know of any specific cases in which an Me 262 is generally thought to have been painted in the RLM 83/75 combination?
I would like to point out one more detail that I think deserves some consideration for interpreting the paint schemes of W. Nr. 110506 and the recon Me 262 in the colored photos. According to "Stormbirds," when the RLM issued the new orders for painting various types of aircraft, the upper and side surfaces of fighters were supposed to be painted in the "late-war browns and greens," RLM 81, 82, 83. But there was an exception! I quote, "Where existing stocks of the old colors existed, color 82 could be used in combination with color 70; or color 81 could be used with color 71" (Green and Evans Pg. 17).
