Re: Me262 found at Deelen

Good catch to find that part with the W.Nr. painted. Having "L" (painted after W.Nr.) has many similar instances in Ju 88´s. These W.Nr. usually were painted on detachable parts, where R or L stood for right or left, as I understand it, as aid to mark the (detachiable) part, and its proper place on the airframe. Finding W.Nr. matching loss reports usually nails down correct plane wreck.
