Re: List of the Legion condor pilots

Hello

Quote:
Can anyone confirm that Oberleutnant Günther Lützow was the first pilot to record an aerial victory with a Bf 109 ?
From Patrick Loreau's "Legion Condor" it was both the first 2/J88 victory and the first ever obtained by a Me-109.

Nevertheless, there were no I-15 losses on that day neither from russian nor from respublican archives. Anyway this victory was: a youg spanish pilot (Juan Olmos?) was bounced by a Me 109 trio and forced to bail out from his damaged plane. Might be from a rare Letov S 231...

Regards
