Re: Suffix "Er" With GQM returns

Hi both, this is actually explained in Ge.qu.6.Abt. records...

The abbrevation ´Er.´ appears in Luftwaffe loss records (f.e. 08.10.1940) and is explained: ´Érsatz notwendig, d.h. Flugzeug kann mit Truppenmitteln nicht wieder hergestellt werden´ (Spare parts needed and can not be handled / repaired with Luftwaffe equipment and or needing an repair at factory level ...)

Translation is mine...

cheers
