Exclamation We need help in an identification of the pilot.

The fragments of the fighter Bf-109 were found. We want to send the remains to the home place of the pilot.
Necessary information of the plane:
Number №44589
September - October 1943 is the prospective time of accident.
Place of the accident: village Borodaevskoe.
We have one personal thing of this pilot. This is Iron cross the 1 rang, but at the present time it’s on restoration. And also we have a photo of the engine of the plane.

Request to assist in an identification of the person of the pilot.

HELP!

Re: We need help in an identification of the pilot.

Are you sure about this number? There are no airframe WNrs in that range. This sounds like a part number.

Re: We need help in an identification of the pilot.

Am a bit puzzled trying to unravel the facts in your post.

Can you clarify where the number was found, and can you post a picture of the number?

The data plate shows it to be a DB605 A-1 engine, so we a have a Messerschmitt 109 G apparently, but I cannot unravel the other details you have posted.

Maybe Chris Goss has something.....?

Re: We need help in an identification of the pilot.

The number 44589 could perhaps be an internal Erla Werknummer.
@ Adolf: can you confirm the crashsite is Lake Borodaevskoe, around 110km NW of Vologda?

regards,
Tomislav

Re: We need help in an identification of the pilot.

Would Lake Borodaevskoe include the possibility of a Finnish Bf 109?
