Of course on the 6th October 1941 you claimed half of a Ju88.
I did send you this article did I not? If not, here is a link.

Wondered what the large white object in the cocpit was. Did not seem to be standard. Interestingly this Hurricane still carried its standard armament.
This Hurricane has been gifted to the Russian Nation. Would be good for them to get it restored. It is very historic to them, being first Russian Hurricane flown, gifted to Kuznetsov and thought to be flown by Safanov as well.
I will have to come and see you at some stage being so close to home.
