Well, Peter Achs asked for something from ULTRA and here I can oblige. I have a number of instances where individual Ar 234s are referred to by the final three figures only. This was sometimes done with other types when a list was being given: they would state the first aircraft as a six-digit number and then, if the others were in the same series (say 110 ...), they would give just their final three digits.
