RLM manufacturer code.
Dear friends,
The Dutch Studygroup Airwar 1939-1945 is working on an inventarisation of all a/c crashes in the Netherlands during WWII. In this project I am working on an analysis of all, in the litterature mentioned, Me 262 crashes in the Netherlands. In this analysis I am working together with Richard T.Eger, Don O'Connell, John Manrho, Coen Cornelissen and the people from the Documentation Group Volkel in the Netherlands. During the reading of Jurleits book "Strahljäger Me 262 im Einsatz" I found in Anlage 5 of this book a copy of a "TA-Bericht" of H.Wendel of 29.2.45 in which he mentioned the Me 262 as 8-262. I presume this was a way of "hiding" the true identity of the plane. My question is: is this also done for planes of the other manufacturers in Germany during WWII and are these numeric manufacturer codes known?
If this subject has been on the board before I have missed completely. Sorry for that.
