Anyone else notice that the FB Ed listed from eBay at http://www.ebay.de/itm/ws/eBayISAPI....m=221112622551 has a few of those 'GL+xxx' codes?

Re: ?L+NOS on eBay Bf 109 A or B

It´s a Bf 109 B-1 6L+N0S of Lehrstaffel (See) Travemünde.
The bird went later to 10.(See)/LG 2.
Please note, that its a zero after the N, not the letter O.
There are other a/c with this 6L+x0S VKZ used by the Lehrstaffel, as He 114, He 60, He 59, Do 18, Ju 87 and another Bf 109 B-1 in 1937.

Re: ?L+NOS on eBay Bf 109 A or B

Aaaaaah Yeah!
Thanks guys
Hadn't seen that link and that flugbuch! I'm not conviced about the O being a 0 ...
Ed gave it? Sure?

OK just an explanation then:
1/ open the link giving the access to 6L+NOS
2/ Other links of the same seller
3/ Get the log-book
4/ Get a magnificent 2.(J)/LG 2 "Schwarze 4" with an unkown emblem.

Thanks Jim.

Cheers, Franck.

Note I change (again) Thread title.

Hello RT, Hi Jörg and Guys,

I just got stupid thoughts but I want to write them anyway:

Let suppose L for Lehr (well camouflaged under former "civil codes" like WL-xxxx and D-Lxxx)
Then 6L-xxx that is 6th Lehrstaffel which is reknown by "Lehrstaffel (See) Travemünde".
I would say, 6th Lehrstaffel, O for Ost and S for See, then 6L-xOS.

Works for He111 (for example) 72+XOK where O, still for Ost and K for Kampf.

Let's say, in this log book, a general overview of aircraft codes evolution from the very beginning when luftwaffe was still "civil" to earlier form , through vkz, with full unit code.
In this case "O for Ost" being the former flotte command area.

Good?

Regards, Franck.

Re: 6L+NOS on eBay Bf 109 A or B

Completely new revelations for me - thx for teaching!

Where is this coding system described and when did it switch to the 4-letter/digit system?

Thx in advance

Roland
