He111-H2 WerkNr 5509
 

Gentleman,
is it possible to track the 'Stammkennzeichen' code of He111-H2 Werknummer 5509? This aircraft was assigned to KG53 and given the “Geschwaderkennzeichen“ A1+LN. It crashed in England on its second operational sortie on 16th November 1940.
Thanks in advice

Manfred

WNr.5509 may have been PF+FF, as WNr.5512 was PF+FI

I would be very careful with making assumptions of homogeneous Stammkennzeichen blocks of aircraft manufactured prior to 1940. PF+FF was a He 111 E. No WNr. known to me.

I have PF+FF as Do 17Z WNr.2822 later to Finland as DN-64

Re: He111-H2 WerkNr 5509
 

The PF+FF was mentioned two times in flight logs as He111E (flight log Schludecker and Hommel).

Hi Peter

Do 17Z - W/Nr.2822 was PK+FO

Hi Norbert
Please can you tell me why we have to be carefull with assumptions of homogeneous Stammkennzeichen blocks of aircraft manufactured prior to 1940? As I said, the aircraft I am interested in is He111-H2 Werknummer 5509 A1+LN which crashed in England in November 1940 on it's 2nd operational raid.

Because the STKZ, for these ones where given, not by the factory at completion, but at unit level end of 1939/Beg.1940 , that means the units received homogeneus STKZ blocks to distribute at their planes, disregarding the models of these ones
