Nick, it's just a good site that I use in helping establish what aircraft might be in which IAP. Nothing that I know of for air combat history. Your best way of finding that out is through Russian books and magzines (not so much Soviet era). Don't expect all the Russian websites to have correct information (even Russians complaint about false information on the web).

A very good point, Nokose. In any case, it IS a very good website and well worth a look.

Lentolaivue 34 was not active until March 1943 and non of the Finnish fighter squadrons operating at the Gulf of Finland claimed an enemy plane on 5 May 1942. However they did claim several of them a year later!

Martti, I should have added the correct date on my post. It was the 4May43.

Whoa... Now I am confused again: was Naval Kapitan Mikhail Yakovlevich Vasilev really shot down on 5.5.42 or do I have the date of his loss falsely recorded somehow?

O4 May 1943 is listed on www.allaces.ru and the official notice in the OBD.
