Is this airman Friedrich-Karl Knust (LG 1)?

Is this airman with the DKiG Friedrich-Karl Knust, from LG 1?

The unit could be III/LG 1, according to the emblem of the unit (Schwäne), on another shot.

There are no clues behind, no date, no names....

Definitely not Knust. Your pic shows a Hauptmann with the "Deutsches Kreuz". When Knust was received with this he was already Major. This officer is quite similar to Heinrich Lau from SG 1.
