Re: 9 December 1943 - YAK 1 loss (Lipfert's 74th victory)
Adriano, thank you and good luck to your project! Good news: I almost forgot, but finally found the pics: few years ago one of our researcher friends found the remains of a soviet La-5 in the Tardos-Tarján area. Even the smashed spinner has been found. After cleaning the nice, original red color became visible! Now I must say that the 530 IAP probably had red spinners and white rudders... So .... I think there is a good chance, that this recovered spinner belonged to Suhorukhov's downed plane on January 4, 1945 that Lipfert described in his diary...!
