STKZ for BF 109G-6/AS W.Nr 163 796 - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

falcon04 · #1 27th August 2018, 20:13

This aircraft of 9./JG 1, Kennung "Yellow 15+I", flown by Ofhr. Hubert Heckmann, rammed a 4th FG Mustang on 25 May 1944, after which Heckmann successfully belly landed while the Mustang pilot bailed out and was captured.

A photo of Heckmann's aircraft on page 969 of JG 1 and 11, Teil2 (Prien/Rodeike) shows the last 2 letters of the STKZ as "E + Y".

(1) Any knowledge of the complete code ?

(2) How would the WNr. be displayed on the vertcal stabilizer ?

Schmoll lists the Wnr. block 163 788 to 163 799 as G6, but the referenced photo clearly shows the AS motor mount.

Thank you, Tom,

Is there a list of STKZ for the entire block 163 xxx - AS or non AS ?

I found the LEMB STKZ database - that looks as good a source as I'm likely to find - so thanks for reading.
