Fatal accident in Corfu

[byron-]

hello JoMe,

In the book of Peter Taghon are`nt any Code letters of this plane refered. Besides we don`t have here a code in form of L1+...P as usual by 6./LG1. What is your source about it?

Hallo

My source is the flight-log of the ATG-pilot Rolf Baltabol. He makes the acceptance-flight with Ju 88 A-5 / 5277 / BC + IZ on 12. May 1941 in Leipzig.

best wishes

thanks JoMe,

Maybe, this strange code (BC+IZ) for a plane of LG 1 could be an older one, bevor they got the L1+... codes.

best regards

Byron

Funny thread,

BC+IZ is the Stammkennzeichen of the aircraft, L1+.. is a Verbandskennzeichen.

That is very interesting Peter,

give us please a little more info about theese "Stammkennzeichen".
Do you mean, the planes got it in the factory and later got a new one from their unit?

That is what thougt.
