Dear Franek, et al,

Thanks for your added inputs. The project has the URL of this thread and have checked it as input suggestions have come in. Adam, thank you especially for the contact info at the AWM.

Franek, ideally, it would be great to have C&M on W.Nr. 191660 identical to what was originally on it. If we can find such in adequate time, that could be done. But, lacking that, the second route is to match the original paint and utilize the paint scheme that was on W.Nr. 191907 at the AWM as a guide to restoring W.Nr. 191660 with an authentically appearing generic C&M. What original information on the C&M of W.Nr. 191660 could be incorporated if it can be made available in a timely manner. I hope that answers your question.

David McDonald and Alan Scheckenbach have been especially helpful in making contact with those that had been involved in the 1997 restoration effort of W.Nr. 191660 at Duxford. Amongst the contacts, Russ Snadden has claimed categorically that the various parts are all to one aircraft, claiming that stories to the contrary are all false. That is good news.

From Legend Flyers, one wing's wing root rib bears a data plate with the following information:

Sach-Nr 8 163 524
Werk-Nr 191 400
Hersteller: eKO or cKO

In paint on the rib is W-Nr. 660. My guess is that 8 163 425 is either the drawing number for the rib or represents the entire wing and that 191 400 is the W.Nr. for the part or wing. Can anyone help with this?

With the help of so many of you, it seems like daily we are getting closer to the ideal state.

Regards,
Richard
