Fi 158 in Fassberg

[cbe2009]

Hello, once again I have met the wall and hope someone knows more.

I have the logbook of Willy Bertram who was flying Fliegerhorstkommandantur Fassberg in 1938-39.
His flight No. 496 it states he is flying in a Fi 158 the code L2+OT. A Werkflug on November 13. 1939.

I always thought that L2 + meant Lehrgeschwader 2.

I have earlier also seen mistakes in logbooks so I am wondering, if this could be another one.
Thank you for your time.

Any idea Nigel why they got the rather odd WNr 101 and 102 at the time?

Did they actually fit in to a Fieseler WNr range pre the allocated early Fi 156?
