Re: Rudder belonging to who?

So, let's bet on Heinz Klöpper, 7./JG1 after his crash on 13 November 43 ? I'm not sure because the symbols are not corresponding with another profile available on Erich Mombeek's JG1.
Regards

Photo can be found in Prien & Rodeike, Jagdgeschwader 1 und 11, Teil 1 on page 539. Klöpper belly landed this Bf 109G-6 (WNr. 20 272) White 1 at Kamper-Nieuwstadt on 13 Nov. 1943.
