Pretty convincing evidence to me that there was another all red tripe, just can't say whether it is 152/17 or 477/17.RAGIII
I do not know if the plane in the lineup next to Wenzel's is the same as the one with the flaking red paint photographed earlier, but if it was could not the paint have been touched up?

Another question for those better informed than myself. Why is the damaged area mentioned above always shown as a yellow undercoating? To me, no matter what the scar is, appears on the surface not a undercoating.
