Re: Kosinki airfield

Dear Ian,

many thanks for your message. I have since found the a/f in question which was in fact in Bjelarus, appr. 5 kms southwest of Mazyr ( or Mosyr as the German transscription would be ). The erroneous lead to Ukraine came from a hand written note of uncertain provenance in one of my references.

The correct spelling should be Kosenki, while in the records I have here there are various spellings, ranging from Kostinki over Kosinki to Kostinke - make your choice. For me the cyrillic lettering would make Kosenki the closest thing but that may be different for the English speaking community.

Anyway - thanks again and regards

Jochen Prien
