I have checked my prewar coastal unit files and found that the only units to have used this aircraft type and also have the 60 code were:



Stab/ Kü Fl.Gr. 106 – code 60+x10, where x represents the individual aircraft identifier.
Stab/Kü Fl.Gr. 306 – code 60+x30
Stab/Kü Fl.Gr. 406 – code 60+x40
1.(M)/Kü Fl.Gr. 406 – code 60+x41
Stab/Kü Fl.Gr. 506 – code 60+x50
1.(M)/Kü Fl.Gr. 506 – code 60+x51
Stab/Kü Fl.Gr. 706 – code 60+x70
1.(M)/Kü Fl.Gr. 706 – code 60+x71

As it happens, I collect prewar codes and note the source of the information such as odd photos. I have seen no photos of He 114s with the 60 code.

As for the 6L code, I have many examples but few source notes. One is the He 60 Profile by Flugzeug Publications. They all end in “OS”, without exception. Anyone out there have an idea where this strange code came from? The unit (10.(See)/LG 2 existed from November 1938 to October 1939, yet this style of code was officially obsoleted and replaced as of November 1, 1938!

That’s all I can say on this subject.
