Good day all. I am interested in modeling one of the Il-2's flown by Anna Yegorova. I've search the web and have found only one picture of her with her Il-2. The pic only shows the prop - no fuselage detail, tail #, etc. I also have a few Il-2 related books, again with no specific info.

Does anyone here have any detail on the specific aircraft she might have flown.

Thanks!

Hi,
I don't think to have more, unfortunately. Could you show this photo, please? I think to have seen one photo with female pilot, but I can't remember where.
Regards

I think that one photograph, or her standing in front of an Il-2, is all there is.  At least it's the only one I've ever seen.  Considering when she was shot down, November 1944, she would have been flying an arrow with a three-colour scheme, but what bort number, which exact camouflage pattern, etc., is anybody's guess.

Regards,

Jason

I'm not sure I've seen the bottom photograph, Konstantin.  Thank you for posting!
