Re: Piper Cub L-4 unit designation

Just received this from Ken:


Further to the query on the unit code markings 44 and the photos of an L-4 at Fouron le Comte, I've now had a look at those photos and see that they really depict two different aircraft. One of them is certainly an L-4, but the other is a Stinson L-5 Sentinel, 44-J with the serial number 42-98522 (see attached copies of both photos). The question is, which of these aircraft landed at Fouron le Comte short of fuel? Or, as seems more likely, were they both temporarily operating from that strip?
