Re: JU 88 A1 plate

Hi Juan,

It's unlikely that a data plate on such a part would be marked with an airplane WNr., and I see no indication of a WNr. on this plate. Thus the particular airplane this window frame assembly was installed on can not be identified that way. What I do see is:

Zeichg., part drawing number, 140-11.

Abnahme, acceptance/build date, 8.40 (August 1940). Also, it appears that inspector stamps are entered.

B.Nr., part serial number, 1451.

W.Nr., I do not see an entry.

Ed, please adjust my comments as needed.

Thanks for showing the plate!

Steve
