The Heinkel He 114 was a biplane reconnaissance seaplane produced for the Kriegsmarine in the 1930s for use from warships. It replaced the company's He 60 but did not remain in service long before being replaced in turn by the Arado Ar 196 as Germany's standard spotter aircraft.

It is written in "Sütterlin", the official German handwriting before 1941  (http://www.suetterlinschrift.de/Englisch/Sutterlin.htm)

So, it reads: "Heinkel Seeaufklärer *He 114*", "Seeaufklärer" translates to "Maritime Recon"

Specs and details:

http://www.warbirdsresourcegroup.org/LRG/he114.html

Just to get the facts straight,

thanks for the help, Koen and Rattler!  So, it's not an "Sgn" before the 114, but rather an "He"?
