Brian, I might add, given that number 1125 is correct, it's full number was 0881125 and code only 5M+E (no fourth letter) and around exactly that number every other aircraft was a D-1. This breaks the rule, so to speak, if there was a rule. Usually the Weather and Recce (Westa, Wek'usta or Fernaufklarungs'Gr.) units got D-1 or D-5 version so one only ponders if it was an D-1, but it happened them units getting an A-4 or even oddball A-14 instead.

cheers
