Re: Please help me trace a downed Battle of Britain BF109
It is just possible that you have one of the propeller blades recovered from Selstead Farm, Wootton, by the Ashford & Tenterden Group back in 1972. If so, then available evidence points to it being from Bf109E-4 (WNr5395) of Oberlt Erich KIRCHEIS the Geschwader Adjutant of Stab JG51 who baled out over Wootton on 28 August 1940 landing at Gatteridge Farm, Denton. But be aware that this so-called 'provenance' is based entirely on the label attached & I, for one, would not accept it as such.
