Hello!
Time for "doesn't fit to my Stammkennzeichen table" news again.
ArtieBob asked about verification for FinnAF JK-259 Stammkennzeichen. It is indeed BI+EY, confirmed by "Übernahme-urkund" archived among other a/c papers at Sota-arkisto, Helsinki (in file T19423/116). BTW this "Übernahme-urkund" document is printed/typed on white paper (for the importance see later).
There is also another interesting Finnish Ju 88/ Bf 109 -pair.
JK-271 had Stkz BJ+WW while MT-243 (a Bf 109 G-2) had Stkz BJ+WP !
Both are taken out of "Übernahme-urkund", which insterestingly is printed/typed on orange paper in the case of MT-243.
WANTED!
"Übernahme-urkunde" document can be found for all FinnAF Ju 88s but not for JK-261 (WNr 3857). Verfication for the Stkz from other sources is welcomed as is all related additional material.
All the research footwork behind this message is done by mr. Pentti Manninen. I have only moderate interest in the whole Stkz/WNr business (save He 50!) and act here mainly as a messenger. In the JU+XY thread I gave mr. Manninen's contact address (
inscale72production@luukku.com ) and am hoping that serious researches do contact him (post here too!).
Cheers,
Kari
