Back to Molnar. It would be interesting to know why Punka continued to publish his error about Molnar's Lib/P-38 victory. First in a Hungarian book about the 109 and then in the Osprey aces book! Couldn't no one have told him? Was the discovery of the correct details so recent that it was unknown at the time the aces book was written?? Or, alas, is Punka a man difficult to correct??? 
Incidentally Csaba, I could not locate any attachment to your mail...

Stig,
As I mentioned above, I talked about the Osprey generally, since I found errors in their aces, unit histories (and IIRC man-at-arms) books as well. But again, it is far off topic here now.
Regarding Molnár's claim: I don't know, why was it repeated in this book again erroneously (it is not so freshly found info). By the way, the Messer had an English edition as well (but was printed only in few number and was sold out long time ago, unfortunately) Altough, as I mentioned before, the Osprey book's main text based generally on the Messer, the appendices are different (the Messer contains some useful extra information about the Hungarian Messers - altough it contains errors, it is still an essential work)
I removed the attachment after a time, since need my upload quota (for other attached pictures) Drop me a pm and I'll send it to you via e-mail.
