Re: Any known Ar196 losses for 17-6-44 ?

Thanks Seaplanes

I was hoping you were going to come to our rescue!
Sorry to say I can't add much to your excellent listing.

One WNr stated in Avions is 0514 which, as the one used by the British as VM748 (ex AM92), was used by the MAEE. However Phil Butler (confirming the WNr and AM92 code) states it became VM761. Since this is not very important for our expanded topic, I believe the WNr is, so far, the highest noted for a Warnemünde built airframe.

Must say I was not aware that RLM also were using the black out system in their WNr layout supplied to various manufactures.

Finally Avions claim there is a loss of WNr 7 (which I took to be 0007) on 18.11.1943. With the current listing this is not possible. However since WNr 1007 was w/o on another date, could this be 623007 and also the reason why you Seaplanes have the Fokker range starting at 623007?

Cheers
Stig
