Scene III: the Mechelen incident

1. * & ** Messerschmitt Bf 108 Taifun.
Decals need sourcing for Mechelen incident (see military-history.fan..ki/Mechelen_incident)
RLM63 Hellgrau NF + AW: Based on the pictures I think the aircraft model was painted "RLM63 Hellgrau" (light
gray) overall. As the model still had the large "Messerschmitt Taifun" logos on both side of the fuselage, I don't
think it was painted in an camouflage scheme. The real aircraft obviously had the usual registration at the
bottom of the wings, but due to the limitation of the model and texture alay-out this can't be done. ( ref
