JG5 losses 16/02/1945, Gossen, Norway

The 16th of February 1945, III./JG5. lost on pilot and at least five BF109s during an air battle with Costal Command flying out of Gossen. All known losses are from 10./III./JG5.

Do anyone have any more history of these aircrafts, pictures, anything is interesting.

Wnr. 13 992, BF109G2, VI+MR. 10./JG5., Black 1+, Wolfgang Kindt, KIA.

According to http://www.luftwaffe.no/SIG/Losses/tap43.html , this plane had 20% damage and was serving with IV./JG5. earlier:
20.12.43
IV./J.G.5
F
Værnes flyplass
Take off accident
Bf 109G-2
13992
20
No personal injury

Wnr 784 057, probably BF109G14/AS, according to official list, it's a G6, Black 15+, 10./JG5., Herman Jäger, wounded.

Additionally, Black 3+ was lost at Gossen during start accident, piloted by Georg Ecke.

Then we have two other wrecks:

This one is belived to be a G14/AS, but Wnr or any identifying features are not known. Possibly piloted by Heinz Lork:

And BF109G6 black 12+, probably piloted by Werner Heinicke.


The last one is known to be lost in a nearby fjord, Sulafjorden, no other information is known, other than its a BF109.

And we have two Wnr lost that day with III./JG5, and three planes without an Wnr, quite a puzzle:
Wnr: 167 233, VO + KW?
Wnr. 782 249

At the moment I'm a little bit stuck regarding the identity of these three planes. But hope to find some thing in a Norwegian report regarding the removal of guns from black 12+, possibly Wnr.
