Hi Matti

WNr.481197 was on this site already discussed that it should be WNr.781197

Correct or not I'm not the expert only an observer.

Kind Regards

Thanks Peter. Yes, quite probably it is 781197. 481197 doesn't fit very well to building blocks. I have a note, that 481197 comes from WASt documents, but also they contain errors.

Nobody is an expert in RLM Werk.-Nummer system.

WJW, please separate your requests for info on different pilots into separate threads, otherwise things get confusing if different pilots are listed under the same thread.
