    Featured on this Tuva 1993 Proof are 3 Airplanes. Cinderella!
    The red German plane is flown by The Red Baron, Manfred von Richthofen.
    Can anyone one help to identify:
    1 The two other planes
    2. The UK pilot
    3. The weapons
    4. Original image, the Mr F.´s artists were often happy to get at least some inspiration from existing images.
    5 Additional information
    6. Where was this dogfight located (probably not over Tuva)

    Your valued comments will be featured in the new 25 pages+ version of
    "Fakes & Phantasy Stamps - Russia after the USSR"
    Link (https)
    to be released this month on Delcampe.

    The British aircraft in the foreground looks like the SE 5, as does the rather indistinct one in the background.
