Looking for book on Soviet aces

[Håkan]

A while ago I got a tips regarding a relatively new book about Soviet aces (I think in 2 volumes) written in Russian but with listings on all claims (in "Aces High" style). However, I have mislaid this tip.
Is there anyone who can verify this and help me where I can obtain this (preferably from a site where they speak English since my Russian is non-existing and that I can pay with Pay-Pal)?

Best wishes/Håkan

You probably mean the book by Mikhail Bykov.
A very comprehensive reference book.

I have two copies of the book. If interested, I can offer you one of them for regular store price what I paid.

Gents, Greetings!

Mikhail is planning now highly improved and corrected (adding more that 1500 pilot with pers.+shared claims total as 5+) as digital project (as pdf file or media libruary, on DVD, with probable support english variant) and asking for community - is it worth to be made? Will it have ab interest among community?

Approx cost will be ~10 E.

I'd certainly be interested in an English version.

I would be interested in any updated version, and English notes to guide my understanding would be great.

Even of more interest, would be a version including the Spanish Civil War, Nomohan/Khalkan Gol (1938-39), Winter War (1940), Manchuria (1945), and Korea. Maybe this is the *next* next version. Although apparently Mikhail has done some research in the Korean War claims.

Speaking of Korea, why are there no grupi (sp?) (shared) claims? Is this the reason for the apparent high overclaiming? All shared claims became full credit? Look at the second volume Mikhail did (which completely supercedes the first one) and there are a very large number of shared claims. But none in Korea.

In any case, looking forward to the DVD. If the loading instructions for the DVD are in Russian, an English translation of that would be useful. I just got the CD of Czech awards (noted here a few months ago), and I can't load it because I won't click on the buttons without knowing what they do. *sigh*
