Fresh new Russian film: Peregon
This story is about the delivery of Aircobras via Alaska, Siberia during
the WWII and evolves around a love story between female USAF pilot and
Soviet pilot and comic situations when different cultures meets.

My Dad served in Alaska during the war (he drove a
mail truck along the AlCan Highway for APO 985).
From what he said, I doubt that a Soviet pilot would have
had the time for a romance. Russian pilots evidently had
orders to get home as fast as they could; Dad saw a few
P-39s crash on take-off, and heard from American ground
crew that their pilots sometimes ignored instructions to
warm up the engines in cold weather.

It sounds like an interesting film, tjough.
