Help for Identification Type of Aircraft

Dear Friends of this Forum,

since 3 years I try to identify the type of aircraft which crashed north of Augsburg Germany.
Based on eye witnesses 2 nightfighter had a mid air collision at daylight during a training flight. In both planes there were 2 flyers. 3 of the 4 survives because bailed out. One pilot was KIA.
Date of crash is not clear but between March 44 and April 45.
I found relics of 2 different Revi's (16 B and 12...)
In addition I found little parts showing the Focke Wulf Company logo (Please see attachment)
Based on one attachment described as "Bennenung der Leitungen" I think it was a 2-engine plane.
Who can help?
Please see attachments.
Thanks in advance
Rolf

Re: Help for Identification Type of Aircraft

the only thing i can see is 3115 thats material number, anyway its 100% german,
can you take better close up?
its possible that part number is covered up for a part by the axe were its connected to the other part. and its only on those first 2 or 3 digits you can know the kind of plane
first intention it looks junkers....

Re: Help for Identification Type of Aircraft

Dan,
thanks a lot.
I have to admit I made a tyoing error. The numer is definitely
DoN 761/1
7475 3115.4.
So perhaps it is a Do 217 N.
In "my" case only one flyer was killed. So I don't think it is the plane you mentioned.
But I'm still interested to know whether its definitely a DO 217.
Thanks in advance
Rolf

Re: Help for Identification Type of Aircraft

Hi
So, it's one Do 217 Nachtjaeger,
THe second plane certainly one Fw, if you found Fw parts
now we need to found when it's arrived .

Not, easy, HQ datas about 1944 are missed in Bama for 1944.

I'm no surprise for the Do 217 crash am 26.3.43 not your plane, time no good, it's sud and no north, and we have one alone aircraft .

We searching 2 aircrafts "suzammen"

Bsrg, dan

Re: Help for Identification Type of Aircraft

Yesterday I visitid the place of crash again and found another ineresting part (I hope).
I could imagine, it is a frame of a small round window. Can somebody confirm?
Can somebody read the letters?
Thanks
Rolf
