Hello Stukapilot,

Luka Muravitskiy was a less-known pilot whose personal / group aerial victories were all single figures. the foto is taken from Bykov's book, Michael and ich hoffe dass es dir behilfilich ist
ps: if u need this book, someone might order this copy from ozon and send it to your address

Dear Stukapilot,

thanks for the Muravitskiy list.
I wonder what takes longer: waiting for the English translation of that amazing book to appear in the German amazon or learning Russian and trying to get it now...

Have a nice Tuesday,

Michael

Hello,

Another way of getting access to Bykov's book, is buying it on Google Play. This will give you a digital version of it for around 8.5 euro.

Best wishes/Håkan

u could ask my help for anything about soviet pilots' claims. but my suggestion to u is to buy a book. it's not a monologue but a reference book like yellow pages categorized by А to Я. so just learn some cyrillic words with the help of goolge translator, u could easily find the victory claims by most of soviet pilots. it's not a dose of hard work, for example, Речкалов = Rechkalov in english = Retschkalov auf deutsch. just an easy romanization

Hello,

The easiest way is to go to play.google.com (you need to have a Google-account (free)) and the on books, search for Михаил Быков.

Dear Stukapilot,

according to the Bykov lists you posted,

• the I-16 score of Golubyev is 9,24,
• the I-16 score of Muravitzkiy 7,86.

Would you be so kind to post the lists of Shestakov and Gritsevets ?

Thanks in advance,

Michael
