Has one chapter devoted to the air battles, "Chapter Four: Over the Kuban". 50 odd pages. That's the most I have found on that subject in a book.

Thanks! I've only read the 'official Soviet' Red Phoenix that first came out--it was a disappointment; I have had opportunity to leaf thru the one written by Hardesty and Grinberg and I found it much more 'candid' about things, especially when it came to the issue of combat losses
