I have asked abut the plane type, I assue it was TB-3 (bomber or civil version -?). And, what is you opinion about this case (maybe other transport)?

Mirek,
It was not a TB-3 (check the book and you will find the answer
)
BTW from Soviet point of view, the person, which they wanted to evacuate was much more important, than the plane and from Hungarian point of view, Pettendi's loss evidently was far more important as well - it was a really serious blow, since he was an excellent pilot. So in this case, not the type of the plane is the most significant part of the story (altough it is known by me). If you are too curious, you will be older sooner
You need to wait only till October (and tomorrow already September)
