Flugbuch flight type translations & terms

[TigerTimon]

Dear members,

Could someone help me with getting access to the following web page?

https://www.luftwaffe-research-group...s-terms.12832/

So, this thread is called 'Flugbuch flight type translations & terms' and I have been able to access this web page earlier. At this moment though, the website asks for a log-in and I don't have log-in credentials. I have to be a member of the LRG unfortunately.

I would be very grateful.


Kind regards,
Timon

I'm with you, Timon. NOT a friendly group of administrators there. Hopefully, some gracious, kind, generous member of both TOCH and the other one will step forward and PM you the information you seek.

Thank you Larry. Indeed, your wish became true. Wolfgang (GrafWolf) is helping right now.
@Junker The option to register is not there unfortunately. The web page indeed says "Please register for an account to be able to post" but only the option ' Log in ' remains.

Other than being pedantic about how you write references to Luftwaffe Units they seem a nice bunch and several of the admins have been very helpful to me with my own research. I do wonder if they were a bit funny in the past though given Larry's comments, but certainly my recent experience is overwhelmingly positive as a very helpful forum with some very knowledgeable admins/members

If this thread is moving on to discussing the merits of other forums, then I should move it to the "links" section.

Hello,


I have found the following entry in Flugbücher of Kampfgeschwader 2 (Dornier Do 217):


'UKW'


The definition is not on the LRG page. Does UKW have to do with the enigma machine? UKW as in Umkehrwalze

?


Thank you,
Timon

UKW (Ultrakurzwelle) is simply vHF very high frequency.
