Hi Konstantin,
this forum is in English. I have once asked to post Russian text only if provided with a translation (unless, of course, one is asking for a translation). So, please, provide.
Second, I have not written any theory about this being his personal plane for all the war or what else. Reading the comment of '35', I have only to change 'his' into 'this' and this is enough.
Eventually I can add that plane 64, of which I have already drawn a profile, was his personal plane.
At the beginning of the war, I got the type of plane LaGG-3 . The lists of the regiment he was listed just under the number " 64" , but I gave it a different name . I called my car " Columbine ." For beauty. And after I knocked on her 10th enemy plane , I renamed it the " Tale ." On " Columbine - Tale " I fought the entire first year
I remember about what you sustained about 'personal planes' :
In general, except for commanders, VVS pilots did not have "personal" planes. They flew what was available.
and insisted on this.
This looks hardly sustainable after having read the memoirs of Kostylev.
Please think to correct your own errors too, before publicizing those of others in this way.
Regards
Massimo
