Re: Soviet VVS attack over Austria in early March 1945?
Sorry guys, I recalled wrong. 861 BAP was written for the previous entry in the loss-list, but this one on September 26, 1944 has no BAP number specified in my records. (My book also does not give any regiment number for this case, only other details.) What I have for this loss on September 26, 1944 is "катастрофа" (fatal accident) in the region of Pirdop, Bulgaria. Only name mentioned is Плеханов Борис Владимирович, who probably survived the crash as his name is not listed among the casualties. Not sure about the names of the other crewmembers, but probably this was the 260 BAP plane lost in Bulgaria on September 26, 1944 you asked. A-20G-30-DO, S/N: 43-9782, R-2600-23 engines: 107007, 104434. I hope this helps.
