Title: Interviews and their discussion
Post by: FPSOlkor on February 02, 2007, 09:15:08 PM
This topic was created as a "book of pro's and contra's". That is, specifically to discuss the interviews presented at this site, and to those who would like to leave some constructive criticizm to my work and to all those would-be authors of the other interviews.

Massimo, take a look into your box, and let me know what you think about it.

Hi Oleg, :)
I've uploaded the new interview. It is very interesting, as usual. Thank you.
I think that someone of English motherlanguage should have a look to it. I've found some parts that are a bit hard to be understood at a first reading, but I don't know if my English is too simple.
I've uploaded only the low resolution versions of the photos, after some restoration. The hi-res versions were too heavy for web use.

So, Pomorov was a mechanic of MiG-1 too. Who knows if he remembers anything about the colors of the inner parts? Was the cockpit and the inner side of removable panels painted with shades of grey, or light blue and green, or what else?
Another question: those Yaks appearing on the photo of the interview with surprisingly dark undersurfaces... were they light blue, grey or what else?

Massimo  :)

Well, I would not be surprized, to find out that my english became rusty... But I do not know of anybody who is good enough in english to check my translation.

instead of
Wasn?t he welcome?
Please make
He wasn't welcome anymore?

It is better to reduce the image, then to try to increase it...

If You want to ask him some questions, make a list, and i'll ask him. But keep in mind, that he is an old man, with a rather weak memory...

Do you have text in original Russian? If so, my wife is fluent in both languages and could check it if you like  ;)

Sent another interview. It is rather difficult to read even in Russian, due to problems with memory of the interviewed... So we made the best we could. If you would like - please show it to someone to check.

So, Pomorov was a mechanic of MiG-1 too. Who knows if he remembers anything about the colors of the inner parts? Was the cockpit and the inner side of removable panels painted with shades of grey, or light blue and green, or what else?
Another question: those Yaks appearing on the photo of the interview with surprisingly dark undersurfaces... were they light blue, grey or what else?
According to P. inner parts of the MiG's (without specification which model) were painted in either very light blue, gloss black (so called Kuzbass Lak) or some kind of Caucasian skin color... Hope this will help. Undersides of Yaks were gray.? ?

Cockpits must have looked like this

Hi Oleg, :)
thank you for this interesting information. Caucasian skin? Some light tan? This was unexpected! Could it be on wooden parts only, the color of the putty?
Massimo


Title: Re: Interviews and their discussion
Post by: FPSOlkor on March 31, 2007, 08:41:16 AM
It means the color on the lower part of second photo... Not sure how it is called in english. Entire cockpits were colored in one color. The inner part of the fuselage usually was gray.

Hi Oleg, :)
thank you for the informations.
The inner part of fuselage... do you mean the rear wooden part, the inner face of engine panels or both?
Massimo

Hi Oleg, :)

I suppose it has to be the rear fuselage behind pilots seat...

How's the interview doing?

Hi Oleg, :)
I've uploaded the interview today. It is very interesting. Thank you for sending it.
Some point is not fully clear to me, I think that someone of English motherlanguage should have a look for small corrections.

My mistake  ;D - Bychkov was the surname...

- This was that Bychkov?

Yes, we had found some propaganda lists sighned by him?

(The memory must have failed Benedikt Ilyich in this case: 937 IAP commander Kolzov was killed on 7.11.43, and Bychkov was captured on 11.12.43, when he was deputy squadron commander in 482 IAP. Bychkov really was in 937 IAP earlier, and in 1942 he was sentenced for a crash, caused by him, what did not become an obstacle for him to become a HSU. According to the interrogation protocols, he did not admott him self guilty, claimimg that he never had any relationship with the ROA, and that Germans just used his name and title. No proof was found of his relationship, but he was stripped of his rank, awards and discharged from the active duty.)



? Did you complete some kinds of forms for kill claims? Or you would just report, and confirmation was non of your business?

All paper work was adjutants responcibility. Of course we had some problems with confirmations... One of my claims was not confirmed. It was almost at the end of war, in Grenau, near Neische. We flew free hunt. Marchenko took me with him, and he shot one down right by the field. It smoked and dissapeared... Another Fokker-190 was there, so I shot at him, and I saw how it rolled over on the ground, burning.
We landed and reported to IAP commander Sobolev: ?Shot down planes near our homebase, send someone to check, we will show where they fell?.
He said:
?You become impudent! If you shot down all Luftwaffe, who?s flying the? Do you want more awards??.

You become impudent! If you shot down all Luftwaffe, who?s flying then?

Hi Oleg, :)

Bychkov... He was sentenced for treason and executed in 47 or 48...
