Re: Polish pilots in the Congo

Somehow missed the post.
The expert on Katanga is doubtless Leif Hellstroem. I had no luck contacting any of the airmen, the last of them passing in the early 1990s I believe. There was Leif's article in one of the recent SAFO issues, which provided some details.
Generally, Zumbach's book cannot be considered a reliable reference, but I am not sure if any documents are available.
