Re: Fw 190F-8 W.Nr. 581 808
Do we know if he actually drowned? The wreck of his Fw190 looks more like a ditching than a bale out.

There is this guy but don't know if he's too old and was actually a pilot.

Not the same guy. This is 9 years older than Obgfr Alfred Kruppa, who was killed in Finland.
