There was only one such squadron, equipped with a motley of Bf 109Es, used for training purposes in Hungary (not Austria), during the Summer/Autumn of 1944.

To the best of my knowledge, most of these old aircraft retained their original Luftwaffe markings and were not used operationally.

However, your man could have flown bomb-carrying Bf 109F-4Bs in fighter-bomber/ground attack missions on the Eastern Front in 1942/1943.

If you would give us the pilot's first (in Hungarian last) name, rank, as well as birth date and place, that could help finding out more details about him.
