Try to imagine your chance to survive on ATAG after only some training hours of landing and take off.
I hear the voice of Western propaganda in your head.
So in second part of 1943 situation has dramatically changed.
That seems contradictory to what Manu just said. Which is it?

As for Western propaganda, I can't say what it's like from behind the iron curtain what with all those statues of leaders and state controlled TV but I don't think it's 'propaganda' when you have so many VVS pilots getting shot down despite superior numbers. Are you saying that this didn't happen? It's certainly not something that the BBC has spent resources rubbing into the UK populace from my experience.
