Hi Rémi and Guys,

I'll change my mind; not WL-NOS cause one letter is missing I think:
Could be D-LNOS
Could be GL - code I didn't know so far ...

So thread title is changing in ?L+NOS. I think it will be better than speculations.

And Yes Rémi, nice quality.

Regards, Franck.

That is GL , hv a look at the log-book, probably the mark for the Test-place Travemünde

A really nice early Bf109B. Features of the A-series are not visible and it was never used in hot and dusty climate, thus no additional cooling slots.
The complete code seems to be WL+NOS which would be a former D-NOS.
I do not know any five-letter codes besides the WL- codes

What about "6 L + NOS"? Known for example an Ju 52 with "2 L + WOK".

Hi Roland,

http://www.luftwaffe-experten.org/stam-wl.html
Here, only WL-xxxx four letters (Total six letters)
Hence could be WL-LNOS
or here:
http://www.luftwaffe-experten.org/d-letters.html
only D-xxxx four letters (Total Five letters)
Hence could be D-LNOS

or GL(?)-LNOS (?)/GL-NOS don't know this kind of code so no "could be", at least for me.

That's the reason I did, at last, prefer put ?L+NOS as it appears on picture instead of conventional way to write these codes.

Regards, Franck.

Seems you are right Rasmu., 6L+ as 2L+, solution is in the Log , the 6 looks like a G, these markings are biz. constructed
6L+COS
6L+GOS
6L+LOS
6L+NOS,


L2+F41 driven by Magnussen an Ace later with KG30, so prob. flew for Erpr.St.88

WL+LNOS and D-LNOS , of course.
The "N" of WL-L(fuselage)NOS is visible on the right wing...

Not unusual ... for example He 111 "2 L + B 32", LZA Rotenburg, July 1939 or the Ju 52 "2 L + V 11", Fliegerwaffenschule Tutow, March 1939, or a lot of a/c's from Lehrgruppe Greifswald in 1938 (Ju 87, Hs 123, W 34). There are a lot of "strange" markings documented by logs or pictures like an crashed He 111 "72 + XOK".
