Captain Eric Brown found a Bv141 in Germany that had been kept airworthy after following hints made by a surrendered luftwaffe bod. The russian commissar allowed him to fly it seeing as the thing was going to be scrapped before long, and in typically Russian fashion, told him to remain in sight of the airfield (russian flying was closely regulated and local flights were always made close enough to the airfield to land in the event of engine trouble or whatever). Captain Brown wasn't overly impressed with it. Nothing especially bad, it was just a mediocre flyer.
