Re: Bf 109 G identity seeked
Hi all,
I am a new member of this forum even if I am dealing with research about WWII crashes in Friuli, Italy, from at least ten years.
The data I could collect from various sources over the past few years are fairly consistent but certainly much more remains to be collected and documented.
I would like now speak about that photo published on Flickr.
I have this one in my database (about Axis losses in Friuli, Italy). Unfortunately there are only a few data but, probably, could be possible to find out something more with the help of someone in this forum.
07/03/1945 BF 109G-6/R2 WNr 230272 I./NAGr 11 Crash landed at Campoformido because of mechanical failure and probably abandoned on the airfield.
Might this be the plane of the picture?
On the same day NAGr 11 lost another Bf 109, a G-6 ? (Erla) WNr 410531 (BX + II), also for mechanical failure, belly landed south-east of Latisana.
Only five days later, March 12, 1945, the NAGr 11 (Kdr Hans Schumann) was disbanded, presumably due to lack of aircraft, and left the airport that, because of heavy bombing, was only partially functional and exclusively used by the Arado 234B-2b of the Sonderkommando Sommer until the end of the war.
