yesterday I received a new call from the woman who saved the pilot in Kiel-Wellsee.
She told me some new details – maybe this details help us to find the right aircraft and the crew !?
1. The pilot was married, on his right small finger he carried his ring. (he told her, his wife is waiting at the airfield for him)
2. The flight this day against Kiel was his first raid.
3. His rank was Lieutenant (?)
4. His parachute was yellow
5. The date of crash was in the last 8 days of the war
6. The woman brought him to the british units, at the railway-station of Kiel. The british soldier laughed, as she has told, she have hidden a british pilot at home.
I have a other crash of Mosquito in the last days of the war in Kiel;
13.04.1945
NT 494 VY-N, 85.Sqdn.
Flight Lieutenant H.B. Thomas was at first MIA
Flying Officer C.B. Hamilton was killed.
