Propeller in Finland
Greetings from Finland!
Last weekend I had the opportunity to meet a man who has a propeller of (maybe) Bf109, and an elderly woman who, as a young girl, has been with his father digging out the remains of the fighter in 1947. I think this will be the remains of a E-7 crashed in northern Finland in Pudasjärvi/Siivikko. At November 13. 1942 Uffz. Heinz Gerber-Schultz bailed-out from his damaged "White 3" (Werk Nr. 3355) of II/JG5 and the plane crashed in a river bank.
Can someone give me some information about this relic? The hub carries an ID plate with Gerät Nr. 9-11081.0 and Werk Nr. 12.76.??? (last digits unreadable). In the last remaining blade reads 9-11073.10, 127661 and E (or F) 27.0132. Could it be from this E-7?
