I'm on fire now! Three more today, all E-1's from JG52. All heavily mottled.

First up is Paul Boche's White 2 that crashlanded in England on October 8:th.



Next is another 4./JG52 "White 2" flown by Erich Mummert who crashed in England on September 30:th. Despite the short time between crashes both the numeral style and enginecowling is different.



Finally, a 6./JG52 aircraft with an unknown pilot, with equally heavy mottling. All three of these schemes are often given as RLM 70/71 due to their dark appearance but looking at small visible parts of the wings and elevators it seems that they were regular 02/71 schemes with the sides very densly mottled in 70 and 71.
