Note also that this is one of very few profiles subjects that had been documented from both sides, and is showing an aircraft with one side in winther camouflage and the another in typical JG 54 green colors. In fact the crew have removed the winter camouflage on the right hand side but for unknown reasons left the winther camouflage intact on the left hand side and on the wings in temporary white.
