Werk No. Pilot ID please?
 

If you could ID the pilots of these fighters, it would be greatly appreciated.

Bf 109 E (Werk No. 1464) II Grp/JG?
Me 109F-4 (W.Nr. 7621) JG 54
Fw-190A (Werk No. 5304)
Fw-190A (Werk No. 027) III/JG26
Fw-190A-4 (Werk No. 581) JG1 –I have two different aces flying this aircraft.

Thanks,

Rob Romero

Rob,
Perhaps you can use this;
5304: Fw190A- St.I./JG.26 Hptm Johannes Seifert. 1-85532-595-0
581: Fw190A-4 St.I./JG.1 Hptm Hans Ehlers. 0-9515737-1-3

Dennis,

The problem with

581: Fw190A-4 St.I./JG.1 Hptm Hans Ehlers

is that Lt. (Adjutant) Eberhard Burath JG1 is also identified as the pilot of this Fw -is there a way to resolve this?

Thanks,

Rob

Fw190A-2 WNr. 5304 - Seifert
Fw190A-1 WNr. 10 027 - Oblt. Walter Schneider 6./JG 26
Bf 109E WNr. 1464 'black 8' of 5./JG 3

7621 shows up as a JG 77 loss, no pilot named.

Rob,
I'm afraid I can't help you any further.
Perhaps the two pilots shared an aircraft occasionally, or one inherited the aircraft from the other?

Good luck,
Dennis

Hello all,

Me 109E-4, w/nr 1464, black 8, of 5./JG 3 crashed in Channel on 5 Sep 40. Pilot was rescued. Rob, do you have a picture of this fighter?

E. Burath flew Fw 190 w/nr 581 on 31.1.43 during a sortie near M. Gladbach. This was not his regular plane - mostly < + , < 0 + at that time.

Best wishes
Rob

There was a series of photos of WNr. 1464 on e-Bay and the Falcon photo site a couple of years ago. Also if you do site search with JG 3 and/or Larry Hickey as key words you'll probably find one of the more interesting discussions from this board from a couple of years ago as well.

Hello Jim,

Thanks

It was Unteroffizier Fritz Mias' Me 109. Alas I do not have a confirmation that it was Unteroffizier Mias who crashed with this Me 109 in the Channel on 5 Sep 40. Do you have more details?

Best wishes
Rob
