Re: Erich Hartmann: verifiable claims

Nick,
I go by this list: http://www.luftwaffe.cz/hartmann.html

307?: OVERCLAIM - 1.11.1944 14:35 "LaGG-5" 4./JG 52 98 836: at 2.500m

- Only option this day is La-5F of 177 GvIAP, piloted by гв.мл.л-т Батюня Евгений Иванович. 8 La-5s covered 452 BAP Bostons over Cegléd RR station, Hungary when 6 Hungarian Bf 109s intercepted them. At 13:00 his La-5F (S/N: 39215336, engine: 6504268) got hit, crashlanded on his airfield and was subject to major repair. Batyunya slightly injured. (See one of the entries of this La-5F loss.) Plane was downed by Capt. László Pottyondy. (The Hungarians also downed two soviet 452 BAP A-20G Bostons: 42-53754-Polonskii (a total loss) and 42-53947-Velikanov (crashlanded, later repaired, lost over Slovakia again on April 16, 1945, etc.........)

307?: OVERCLAIM - 7.11.1944 - 7.11.1944 13:35 "Yak-7" 4./JG 52 98 563: at 1.000m

- Only option this day is 150 GvIAP Saratov-built Yak-3 (S/N: 3214, or 32(292)14, engine: 422-6) was lost at 12:19 local time around Lajosmizse, Hungary. Pilot, гв.л-т Пьянков Евгений Андреевич bailed out with badly burned hands. Plane was a total loss. (6 Yak-3s against 4 Fw 190s at 1400 m. Plane belonged to 5 VA, Stab.13 GvIAD - written off in mechanical report by November 11, 1944.) No more options.

Hope this helps.
Gabor
