Re: Three color band on Storch

I agree with Denes reasoning. I have a Fi 156 WL-IDKL in 1939. On 01. Jan 1939 it was ordered the all Kennzeichen change from the civilian D-XXXX to the military WL-XXXX for military aircraft. the WL- was later dropped and the code ID+KL remained. Since this particular aircraft was manufactured in 1939 this is indeed a plausible explanation.

Reagrds,

Norbert
