Lath with a WNr. on Ju-52
 
Prompt in what places on Ju-52 the lath with its works number or where in general by the plane it is possible to look it fastened?

Re: Lath with a WNr. on Ju-52
 
I believe that you are asking where the main airframe identification plate (typenschild) was located on a Ju 52. Start with the exterior of the forward fuselage on the left side. The plate was riveted to the flat skin forming the lower half of the fuselage side, aft of the nose curvature and below the cockpit canopy and adjacent corrugated skin. This relatively large plate measured ~ 4-in. long by 1.5-in. high. An examination of period pictures will often reveal it. A detached example (Werk-Nr. 6935) is pictured here.

I have correctly understood you?

Here's another graphic showing the main plate's general location on the lower fuselage, left side. Look carefully at period pictures, and you can sometimes see the plate there.
