Re: Wing number two times ?

It could not work any other way.

Three of the letters signify the Geschwader and the Gruppe/staffel. That just leaves one letter for the aircraft identity.

They certainly got through more than 24 aircraft in the space of five years

If each one was unique then the 9K would have to change after each batch of 24 letters was used up

In short, there were several aircraft with 9K+EL
