Hello Rob

I seem to recall reading that it indicated the aircraft of a Staffelkapitän. However, if so it appears to have been somewhat rare. The only photograph of an aircraft with such that comes to my mind at the moment is the Fw 190 A-5 thought to have been flown by Oberstleutnant Walter Oesau, Geschwaderkommodore of JG 2, at Beaumont-le-Roger in February 1943. Hopefully some one else can add additional information.

Horrido!

Leo
