Re: Werk Nummer or Werke Nummer?
I agree - the issue for me and I am certain for other researchers is not whether the correct spelling or abbreviation is used. But that the correct W/Nr. (which is my abbreviation) is written - typed - applied - painted, to either documents, Flugbuchs or to the aircraft themselves (ie photos). But we all know that mistakes were made (as then under stress or boredom during wartime or today with re-copying data. It is human nature.
Very frustrating and confusing but sometimes you get lucky with duplications and the correct W/Nr. can be corrected from a 2nd source. Such is the researcher's lot you either accept it or you go crazy. The same applies to all those incorrect abbreviations!
