Luftpolizei Bf 109 B of the RLAD

Recommended Posts

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.

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

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.
