Re: Researching Bf-109 Crash in Sth London
Finally got to talk to Dad about this.
I showed him the photo of the crashed 109 and he said that was not the one he saw on the ground at Gibson's farm. He is convinced that the aircraft he saw was the right way up and much more intact.
He told me that he was scrumping for apples and it was a sunny and clear day and is pretty sure it was September. He saw the plane falling for a couple of minutes in the clear sky. He pointed out that the people in the photo were wearing warm clothing and the sky looks overcast.
Also, the profile has the name Walter Friedmann?
None of this seems to support that the plane was Albert Friedmann's. If my Dad's recollection is accurate, then the records must be wrong. I might stick something in the local paper and see if anyone else recalls the crash.
