Bf109 WNr 14729 (II./JG52) discovered

Bf109 WNr 14729 (II./JG52) is discovered in Kuban area:
http://iskatelklada.tuapse.ru/forum/...kaz.html#21440

According to GQM return, WNr 14729 and 13469 (Fw Theodor Mohr) were lost after mid-air collision over Anapa 29.Apr.1943.

But according to Matti Salonen's data it was in Qu.75232 (nw Krymskaja). Indeed, the plane was founded almost in the center of Qu.75232 not far from frontline.

Several bullets/shells holes in the plane and its motor so WNr 14729 was damaged in air combat before collision probably (if the cause of loss was collision really).

Whether the pilot of WNr 14729 is known now?
Also any details about these losses are interesting.

Best regards,
Andrey
