Hi Roger,

Something tells me that I have seen other published images of this kite somewhere before.

I have an unpublished photo of it showing it bellied-in and far worst for wear. While a good view of the tail is shown, there seems to have been some repainting and the werknummer is not visible. The full code is "ge.C+I" outlined in black with the last letter of the stammkennzeichen - "L" - visible.

My guess that it was found in Sicily, and it appears to have been used as a hack.

Hopefully other can provide more details.

Cheers,

David
