Romanian reccon over SU before 22.06.41?

I wonder if is know any Romanian reccon flights done over Soviet territory before 22.06.41?

I know one incident, written from Sovite side, when in mid May 1941 Soviet pilot K.N. Myagkov of 67. IAP had met in air an "Rumanian Hurricane". He opended fire, claimed it as a victory, but this plane had escaped. I do not know any Rumanian Hurricane loss in this period or other fighter plane?

Such reccon flights are know from Finish Air Force, which used one Blenheim Mk I with special German cameras in summer 1939 and also before 22.06.1941, over Leningrad, Kronsztad.

So it is very possible that such secret reccon flights were also done by Romanian crews too?
German had done them (almost 500), Finns too (but much more less), and why not Romanian?

Regards,
mw
