LW Wehrpass - Special Training entry unknown Equipment

Hello Gents,
Could someone please help me out with a couple of special training entries in a Luftwaffe Wehrpass from page 21
R. u. Y. - Gerate - Personal 593 = Ausb. Nr
Y. u. S - Gerate - Personal
What pieces of equipment do the abbreviations stand for, any help would be appreciated.
Regards
