Yes he should but he didn't have time. Being slightly injured he had to run away because the US Army troops were already approaching Selgersdorf. Secondly the ar 234 wasn't damaged too much. It was estimated on 20% only and it was airworthy generally. A such damaged aircraft should be picked up by the German techical unit and repaired. However a such procedure requires some of time. But in the case, there was no time for that.

The Werk Nummer is still unknown. In theory the aircraft code should be F1+AD with the green 'A' individual letter and the green engine nacelle intake rings what would fit the III Gruppe commander.
I haven't seen any other ones except those that can be found via the Internet.
BTW .. the Ar 234B of the W.Nr. 140356 seems to be confused with the W.Nr.140476. Many sources say that the plane seen in the pic below is the W.Nr.140476 code 8H-DH tested by the RAF as VK877 while one book says it is the W.Nr. 140356 possible code F1+?S tested by the RAF as AM226.
