Abreviations assistance Flugbuch.
 

Guy's . Girls.
I have just got a flugbuch to a flight crewman. I am struggling with the abreviations in the flight purpose column. Fiendflug is pretty easy but the rest I am stumped with. I will do some scans when I get home tonight any help gratefully received. My initial research indicates he was from KG 77. He flew in He 111 , Do17z and Ju88s. His entries end in Sept 40. I will get the scans up as soon as possible.
Best regards
Rich

I will post the rest on this general militaria forum, it is quite small and no threat if anyone wants to pop across and look.

It appears I have exceeded my posting allowance, there is a bar at the top of the upload thing and it has gone completely red??

Flights 1-12 and 35-45 - funktelegrafie flug. Seems he was Bordfunker under training. S. al. L-BO - my bet is schulflug als luftbeobachter. He was trained to replace the observer in case the latter would become casualty in combat situation

FT-Flug is Funk-Telegrafie = wireless telegraphy (RAF abbreviation = W/T)
