Sorry Wide, At the time I asked for the book I was just learning about it, I realize now that the author Carl Geust is Finnish and that he has written many books about Russian planes. Red stars 7 I believe is his latest about the winter war 39 and 40. I have been able to acquire 1,2,3, and 5. The book store is also the publishing house?
I think people mistake support for a plane as "I need it right now" I don't believe I ever said anything to that effect. I am 1 of those that fly the 39D regular and would like to try out it's bigger brother. I am just making the case for its inclusion, as the standard response was "It never saw combat".... Well that's just not the case it fought two fronts.
I mentioned a fella that got shot down in the P-63 thread. The man is famous for being captured then escaping by stealing an HE111 with a V1 <is is said to have been a V1... but rocket steering equipment was found in the plane possible a Hs 293> under the wing. He escaped with 9 others as well. He was the only one that new how to fly in the group. What is not to well published is what plane he was flying when he was shot down.
