Rudel's Stuka

Nov 18, 2007 1 Replies

I'm building a 1/72 Ju-87G and I want to use the scheme for Rudel's "commander" aircraft with the yellow stripes on the wings. I'm building the ancient Frog kit (I'm one of those guys) and I'm having fun, but sources that I have looked at all disagree on the layout of the stripes. I have a downloaded Fujimi instruction sheet and a downloaded Hasegawa sheet and I have several sites that show models of Rudel's plane, such as

and they all DISAGREE. One instuction sheet shows yellow marks on both wings outboard of nat. insignia, and the other shows the yellow stripes "bracketing" the nat. insignia on both wings. Most models on the web show stripes on one wing, not both.



Is this one of those deals where no photo exists and so "to each his own?" Does anybody know for sure??



TIA.


he went through a lot of planes and models of stuka. so there could be 8-10 different "correct" one. pick some pics of a particular plane and stick to it.
