1. I have a talk with a very old man in a village near crash place.
He said me that there was a fight 15.01.43 between one Bf-109 and 2 Yaks.
At first the german brought down the first Yak-1. (The Yak was fallen right near Bf-109's crash place) And then the other Yak-1 brought down the german Bf-109. And the Bf-109 crashed (almost vertical dive) with loud howl!!

2. There are 2 digits in vertical stabilizer remain.
The first one - 10431.
The second - 10438

3. The old man said me that KGB was very curious by this Bf-109 in early 50's. But they can't to get the plane from the depth of 11 meters.

4. It's clear for me that it was Alfred Deege in this plane. There was a letter with his name at the pocket of pilot's jacket.
What i've found from JG-54 loss list, 10431 was flown by Uffz. Rudolf Fischer-Bütow and was shot down by LK at 29.10.1942, near Demjansk/Jerschino (100% loss). Unit was IIIStab/JG-54, pilot status MIA maybe POW?. I believe you, but why there are to numbers at the stabilizer?
