Re: Bf109 "BE+GC" any info?
Some time ago I visited area and managed to interview person who was witnessing that incident.
That day was fighter flying very low over their farm. Horses were scared and broke through their fence. Then little boy and his dad went chasing them. Soon they noticed nose looped fighter near on the meadow which has quite a soft surface. Pilot tried to make wheels down landing and caused with soft surface that nose loop and pilot was trapped inside cockpit. Those guys got their shovel from their farm and dug enough room for the pilot to go away from the cockpit. That now little over 80 year old guy didn't knew exact types of fighters in that time, but he said that "spinner was quite small" and "under tail wings it has supports" I think all that information means BF 109E and that time it has to be E-7 subtype. Then the pilot who has "blue clothes" came with them in their house and was very pleased and paid money for help. In couple of days from Pori came two halftracks and they rotated the fighter and towed it to side of the nearest road. Witness said that the plane was quite undamaged and pilot was not hurt at all. |
