The aircraft did not of its own choice commit war crimes. Most Luftwaffe pilots were not Nazis. The aircraft is of historical significance, and that history must be told.

No point pretending it didn't happen. There may have been some captured aircraft re registered with RAF roundels, but.... that would confuse the casual observer.

Original Luftwaffe insignia (bar cross, not swastika) with clear history ok IMO.
(And I had great uncle and grandfather die in WW1)
