Bf 109 E W.Nr. 1609
 

Looking for any information on a Bf 109 E, W.Nr. 1609. Any help would be appreciated. I know the unit the aircraft was assigned to but I am unsure of the pilot or the aircraft's fate.

Thanks

Thanks John!

I am always reluctant to ask questions on the 'net as the replies one gets usually doesn't come with a quoted reference. It can be quite easy to get something "made up".
