loss of german aircraft loss in Austria during snowstorm 18.3.1944

Gentlemen,

anyone who can give further details on a german aircraft loss southwest of Vienna, Austria on March 18th, 1944? It is reported that the whole crew died during the crash and it happened in a snowstorm. Unfortunatly I have nothing more yet....
Many thanks for any details. Cheers, K.
