Re: Pe-2

just a few slight corrections...
that should be VISH -it is the Russian abbreviation for 'variable-pitch propeller'

also that should be AV-5...
(another popular type of prop used on MiG's and 'Ilyushas' in one sub-model or another)

these mistakes are typical when Russian is translated into an intermediary language and then translated into English from there.
it is always best to translate the Russian directly into English for best results.

that is why it is always best to read it/see it in the original Russian, rather than some other languages transliteration from it.
