Re: Loss of Capt. I.V.Bochkov to Finish Air Force/Flak ?

Hello,
I wish to correct the following in my earlier post.
The sentence should read -
I think that his a/c was BX238 Yellow "16".

There is also in "Soviet Aces of World War 2 " by Hugh Morgan, a colour profile of his a/c but the serial is again given as BX738.
There were as far as I am aware NO "BX" RAF serial numbers after BX434, the next series started with Vultee Vigilante BZ100.
So as I put earlier the serial number of Yellow "16" should read as BX238.

Alex
