HUNDELGEM Crash of an Allied fighter plane in the year 1945

[REDCAP50]

Hello Forum,

Whilst doing some local inquiries on the German He111P2 that went down in Hundelgem cfr http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showth...hlight=He111P2
a villager mentioned that an Allied fighter also went down there in the year 1945… unfortunately I have very little info on that accident:
Before crashing, the pilot bailed out but was killed whilst hitting a tree (one supposes that the chute did not open completely). The fighter plane itself lost both wings during the sliding between two trees and the engine of it ditched in the soft verge of the Beerlegemsebaan (N415).

One supposes that it was a RAF fighter, but we don’t have any proof of that: no picture of the crash, nor any piece of the wreckage has been discovered, until now. The local police station ( Gendarmerie) in Munkzwalm which assured the surveillance of the wreck, has been closed down since the Police Services in Belgium are been reformed, so it will be very difficult to discover any information about the crash!

I’m well aware that this info is absolutely not enough to do any profound research….. but I’m hoping for a “little” miracle ! Thank You all for ANY information.
