island of Ærø 9/4 1944.
The aircraft belonged to 1./JG 1 and was coded Weisse 14.
T/o ?. Op: Interception of American bombers.
The engine of the FW 190 operated by Leutnant Heinz-Günther Lück was damaged by

emergency landing on the island of Ørø.
Lück was followed down by Weisse 3 and
both fighters belly landed near Stokkeby about 3 kilometres south of Ærøskøbing
after having circled the area a couple of times.
Weisse 14 broke through a small dike in the field and Lück hit his head on the

Over the next days the aircraft was dismantled and taken away.
