Exciting find Cees!
I wasn't aware of it. I think you're right that it is a Bf 109 wing, teh landing gear on the left could also be from a 109. The engine and the prop blades does look like they're of German origin, judging from design and paint. May be a 190 or the like?
I'll send an e-mail to a contact i Rumania.
Great work Cees!

: Mikael, are you aware of these remains?
