BELL P 39

[Tolesa]

Greetings to all aviation historians. I would ask and ask for advice. There is a list of serial numbers of Bell P 39, which was used in Russia during World War II? In our country near Harracksdorf, one crashed, the pilot died, a monument without a name. I would like to find out who that pilot that the statue was no longer nameless.
I know only that the accident was the beginning of March 1945. Would somebody please history to advance?
For each reminder in advance thank you very much ..
Greetings. MT

Where is Harracksdorf, please?

Soviet P-39Q-25-BE (S/N: 44-32665, engine: А-032646, st.Lt. Rogachko) of 268 IAP crashed at Petrovice-W, Czech Rep. on April 13, 1945. That's the only soviet P-39 I have info on in the area, but I guess, this is a bit too much distance. Perhaps another P-39 of the same 268 IAP?

Hi, there are some links in local language about this crash:

This link is about crash of P-39 probably from MArch 1945 - but without more info (date, name of pilot, seriál number ...etc)

Greetings to all who responded to my post. I really appreciate it. There are just some acceptance marks and numbers written in pencil on the reverse side braces and sheets. There is a list of P crashed 39 in 1945? One four-digit number here is repeated enough, but perhaps it was a big coincidence if it were a number of aircraft. It is quite likely that the aircraft could be conducted as a loss in Poland. Anyway, it is sad that there is a pilot, and his family has no clue about it.

What is the four digit serial number.. very possibly the key lead to the actual aircraft AAF serial number.

Marian - AAF serial number 44-3534 was indeed a Bell P-39Q-21-BE. It was a Lend lease Aircobra supplied to the USSR in late 1944.

I believe it was in the last block of P-39Q's sent to USSR..
