Re: Russian female pilot Olga Lisikova
Hi Nick,
I think it must be another Po-2 on December 17, 1944: Po-2 of 96 OKRAP, 17 VA, 3rd Ukrainian Front, S/N: 7242, engine: 12833, piloted by Grogorii Semenovich Matveichenko (л-т Матвейченко Григорий Семенович) downed at 15:05 (Moscow time, so 13:05 local, which means only 20 mins. difference!!!) at the altitude of 30-50 m. Plane crashlanded, Matveichenko was unhurt, plane was downed by 4 Fw 190s. (The other Po-2 "loss" on December 17, 1944 in Hungary was Po-2 №4812 of 5 VA, 511 ORAP, 2nd Ukrainian Front. It was scrapped and handed over to 10 ПАМ for spare parts.) So Nina's Po-2 №5666 on December 18, 1944 is still unsolved. Cheers, Gabor |

Re: Russian female pilot Olga Lisikova
Oh well. It was certainly worth asking, because errors in date have come up before. Thanks for putting us straight on Schulz's claim in any case

Re: Russian female pilot Olga Lisikova
Hi guys
Most interesting! Thanks Ed, but that's where I found the information! Do we have any Bf109 pilot being lost in that area in October 1941? Cheers Brian |
