Me109 Recovery in 2000...need info on pilot and werk number.
I have an article from a German April 2000 newspaper, which talks about a recoverey of an Me109G nightfighter from JG104. Photos are also in the article.

The 19 year old pilot was still in the cockpit, his name was Heinrich Schwerte, but no werk number was noted.

Sounds like it was revovered from Lichtenau, and it crashed in September 1944...

Can anyone provide more info?

Thanks!

Mike
