Flight from captivity
 

Hello,
as I remember there were two soviet pilots escaping from german captivity by using german aircraft.

Nikolay Kuzmich Loshakov from 14 GIAP on 11.08.43 using probably a german fighter (maybe from the Riga area) and Mikhail Petrovich Devyatayev from 104 GIAP using an He.111H-22 Werknummer 13013 (according to Bergström probably from II./KG.53) on 08.02.45 with 9 other prisoners from the Heeresversuchsstelle at Peenemünde.

My questions to the experts are:
a) Which were the units of the aircraft and the Werknummern.
b) Are there similar cases of other allied pilots (US, RAF...) of escapes via aircraft.
