Re: Ju 290A-4, W.Nr. 165

The Ju 290 as most of the Junkers aircraft built at the Stammwerk at Dessau had 10-digit-W-Nrn. See enclosed photo of a data plate of one Ju 290 (source: LEMB or TOCH). In original documents you can find similar WNr. for Ju 252, Ju 352 or Ju 288.

An RAF list of captured aircraft refers to A3+OB (at Flensburg) as "110/186."
Credible sources, indeed. I miss the ultra decryption.
