Thanks Lynn for your precious informations! Do you have some photo tha show parts you identified?
The Bf109 crashed in 1943 25 km south east of Salerno. In the mission of B-24 on Naples of 11 january 1943 of cap. Payne the survivors B-24 crews affirmed they shot down a Bf109 just around the place we find this crash (Prchal B-24 crashed just 1 km from Bf109 crash site and Payne B-24 crashed 5 km from it) but appear to be not confimation of this shot down. Perhaps the Bf109 can be shot down in sept 1943 during days of Salerno landing. Any help you can give will be very appreciated.
Thanks!
