Re: Wolfgang Spate's 1941 claims?
Eugen, Thanks for the list of to Oct41. I'll have to wait until a time J. Prien's book comes out in english to get the rest. I did see one of the claims that he wrote about that maybe Andrey Dikov can give some info on. His 28th kill on 03.09.41 he thought the pilot might have been a VVS "Ace". He stated that this "I-18" pilot jumped the 4 BF-109's that he was in formation with and was hard to get behind. He said that the pilot lured him into the russian flak over Leningrad to get him shot off his 6 but hung so close they couldn't shoot until after he shot him down. He mentioned he was still having dreams about it months later.

Reason: wrong number of BF109's
