Hi Göran!
Yes the pictures are indeed interesting and it would be fun to identify this aircraft.
If this was the 1./JG 77 they had a period in Norway?
Do you know when and were?
Maybe the loss list`s could tell us something.
The house and surroundings could also be to help if we could pin point the area..

Thanks !

Hi John,
Thanks to the air scoop it's a Bf 109 E!!!
Or Jgr. Drontheim. Let's try this one:
Bf 109E-7, 4.(Eins.)/JFS 3, WNr. 5163, Pilot Hammesfahr, Friedrich "Fritz". Uffz., Weisse 12, Fla/ Halsanaustan, Halsa, 30km ESE of Kristiansund.
Infortunately I haven't the rate of damage ... If it's more than 20% it's not that one.
But it's the only Weisse 12 I have on 2/12/1941.
Hope it's the good one. If not Forget what I wrote.
Cheers, Franck.
PS: Since the pilot's name is given ... I have doubts whatever.

Hello,
I have the Hamesfahr machine, Werknummer 5163 as 80% damaged. The description of his crash landing in in my book, Die Jäger der Graf Zeppelin.

Hi John,
I don't know if you understood my last post; I don't know if I understood yours but with 80% damage, given by Francis, there is few chance if nil my proposition to be the good one.
And, unfortunately I have no other solution.

Franck.

I misunderstood then..that means I still have this pain:-)
Hehe.. Still a mystery this one then.
Thanks anyway!

Cheers
