Profile/Pilots??

[Soviet Ace]

I was looking at the names of the pilots in the Pilots section, and was wondering if they were real fighter pilots in WW2? or are they just names for the characters? I looked up a couple, but only found "Owen Wright" to be a surfer from Australia or something. And none of the Russian pilots I could find in my books of Soviet Aces, or on the internet? It's no big deal if they're real or not, I'm just curious.

Also, they have faces and a credible background... Any solution to this case? Please?

No idea, But that old guy reading from there dairy is very hard to understand

I don't think they are real as there is no record of an Owen Wright flying for the RAF during the Battle of Britain.

The only Wright's that are credited,

Wright A R. Lieutenant
Wright E W. Sergeant
Wright J. Sergeant......... Killed
Wright D L. Sergeant.......Killed
Wright W. Pilot Officer.....Killed
Wright R R. Sergeant

Yeah, I'm taking it that their just made up for the game. And that their "diaries" are probably just made up?

Well, from the Tiger Hunt mission in the demo I can tell you that Glen Duncan and John Meyer were real piots for the U.S. during World War 2.

There is a guy in my hometown that flies a P-51D with the markings of Lt. Col. John C. Meyer (Petie 2nd).
