Re: Ju 86 P loss(es) on 15 April 1941 in Ukraine
Hello Mirek!
Thank you very much for your reply, very interesting information. I would like to further clarify how Szałunow forced the Ju 86 crew to land. Simply by flying next to it and signalling by hand? This alone may have been enough to the crew of the Junkers that flew with only one engine running and was still about 150 km from the German-controlled area. In that situation, the appearance of a Russian fighter on the wing may well be enough to show that their situation was hopeless. Or just firing warning bursts or even firing at the only working engine?
TIA
Juha
