Re: Remains of Bf 109 and Pilot found in Denmark
An researcher ... armed with full set of Bf 109 manuals, part lists and "hands on" knowledge of what to look out for ??

Another not far back discovery in same country comes to mind.
When are people learning.

Re: Remains of Bf 109 and Pilot found in Denmark
Hilmar, an engine specialist from flugzeugforum.de, said this are remains from a DB 605A ... his guess is an G-6/G-14. So Krüger could be an possibility.

Re: Remains of Bf 109 and Pilot found in Denmark
Hey.

They have just said it's not Bruno Krüger but they will not say name of ID-papers yet....... My guess is one of these three:

Bf109 G-6 (RX+JF) vkr.412118..... 30 Aug 1944 Pilot Gunter Kreiger
Bf109 G-6 (NI+XZ) vkr.165196 eller 165096..... 10 Okt 1944 Pilot Hans Wunderlich
Bf109 G-6 (RX+DQ eller 152) vkr.411920.............. 16 Nov 1944 Pilot Franz Kowalski

or perhaps a completely unknown ;-)
