Leading Edge Slats on the Me-109

[Al Schlageter]

What was the condition of the Bf-109 and the pilot? Was the aircraft damaged? Was the pilot wounded? Was it a real spin or did the pilot pass out??

Would a pilot in a damaged a/c or being wounded not try to 'get the heck out of Dodge' and not be the aggressor in combat?

Must have been one heck of a G he was pulling to pass out, especially in a 109.
