This incident was recorded by Gunther Rall in his book, both sides were behaving in gentlemen’s way. But Rall didn’t know what happened next.

During 2010s , a gentleman live in Ukraine found out the fate of that soviet pilot, Yakov Antonov later escaped from German guards and sadly get killed when he was attempting to cross the line.
