Identification for this Me-109 ?
 

Hello everybody,

Anyone could help me in order to identify this Messerschmitt 109 crashed in Normandy (Around Pont-Audemer)? According to few accounts, the aircraft was next destroyed by fire by some french Underground men. No further more info for me, sorry...

Please see the two attached files, the werk nummer looks like 13596 ??

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance to all

Kind regards
Loic

It's looks to me more like 413 596.

Yes!
The W.Nr. letters and the tail camouflage style with typical round mottles and earliest enlarged rudder (I guess) identify Erla-built Gustav.
As little on fin is visible, it's most probably 413596 :)
A nice one :)

Sorry Loic, but this Me 109 does not appear on German loss lists. Aircraft with close work numbers were lost with JG1, 26 and 27 over the July and August 1944 but I am afraid, that without anymore details, we will be unable to identify that particular case.
