Re: Air victory of the 5th Air Army VVS on 3 April 1945

In the recently published new (electronic) version of Mikhail Bykov´s Soviet air victory (read "claim") publication Soviet fighter aces from Spain to Korea (mentioning some 1500 Soviet fighter aces with personal information, units, decorations, victory dates and locations on 1558 pages) there are 12 aces listed scoring on 3 April 1945. These aces mentioned by Bykov represent 28, 56, 111, 113, 116 and 133 GvIAP and 269, 611 and 866 IAP, and thus not 6 GvIAP of 5 VA.
