Excuse my ignorance but wasn't that known already ?

Why does it look like the one marked as Red 2 is another Red 1? Looking at the top left wing of the 4th bird it appears as those there is only 1 stripe. And when you look at the image in Jason's post the weathering half way down the fuselage looks similar.
kk1, I think I remember who you mean. I had to make the same claim. Two red leaders.
Red Leader has always been my favorite X. These table photos are the only time we see a Hero and a Pyro representing the same ship together. Red Leader Pyro looks weathered to match. More evidence that there was great care taken with the paint and detailing on the early Pyros.
And the Insider pic I posted gives you a great shot of the differences between the two, looks like the burn marks are slightly extended on the one.
Hey check it out Red 6 (at 7:07) you can see the painted inside of upper wing matches

And the two Japanese ones from the 1970s! I can take pics with the Rodmart and Salzo if you want to photoshop them into a mega pic?
I would like to finish my salzo hero x wing but I'm missing a piece!
anyone can help me ?
thanks!
