Luftnachrichtenschule 4 / Lyon-Bron

[Nick Beale]

Although some schools used a common system of letters, others did not. The letters you mention were just the individual factory markings for each aircraft (often used as a radio call sign). A few wrecked aircraft were found at Bron by the Allies in sEptember 1944.

There were three Ju 86, converted for transporting petrol: W.Nr. 086 5013, RO+CW; DK+XP; and another completely destroyed.

Also, totally destroyed, were Ju 88 W.Nr. 0862; another Ju 88; three Fi 156; two Ju 52; three "Fiat G. 50" (in fact Reggiane Re. 2002 of Geschwader Bongart); one Fw 58.

Thank you for the answer.

The wrecks of Geschwader Bogart's planes show that this unit was present at the time of the bombing of April 30th and / or August 14th.
