SAU Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) Here's my first choice. A Luftpolizei Bf 109 B from the Reichsluftaufsichtsdienst , RLAD a civilian organisation under RLM This 109 was used together with Fieseler Fi 156 and Arado Ar 68 for air policing no-fly areas and reconnaissance of flight routes. Source: Die Geschichte der Luftpolizei - F.Schilling, H.Rettinghaus D-POL-98 from Falcon's Messerschmitt Hangar Propably a Bf 109 B-2 or a B-1 fitted with a metal propeller Alps-printed decals from MRR Classic Plane together with the Heller kit And the colour of the plane... Well, not Humbrol nr 2, but it's hard to tell. Was the photo taken with panchro or ortho film? The personnel from the RLAD had a light green cap lining and collar color. RAL 6009 was the "police color" but the D-POL-nn planes weren't part of the civilian police Comparision of the green RAL colours Edited July 3, 2017 by SAU 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basilisk Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Indeed - It is the first time I hear about this unit - sounds fascinating. Have fun deciding on a green. Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAU Posted July 30, 2017 Author Share Posted July 30, 2017 Only one week to go. Better hurry up then Cockpit done And wings in place I also found a Hataka Polizei grün that looked useful. Correct for vehicles but surely not for this plane but I'm gonna use it anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
