Hello,

For what it's worth I could only find one "L" which is as given in the links in the earlier post. FK195.
Here is my list of 206 Sqdn Fort's.

AN519; 520; 530; 531.
FA695 "1:V"; 696; 699; 700 "1:R"; 702 "P"; 704 "R"; 705 "U"; 707; 708; 710; 711 "1:E"; 713.
FK184; 186; 190 "J"; 191; 195 "L"; 198; 199; 208 "B"; 210; 211; 213 "1:C".
FL451 "D"; 452 "G"; 453 "A"; 454 "J"; 455; 457 "F"; 458; 459 "J"; 460 "1:H".

I have not cross checked these with the a/c listed in the above links so they may differ.

Also there may well have been others.
