It should be clear to all airplane enthusiasts that Raab airplanes, and especially the relative lack of information about them, have a fascinating aspect. It is amazing that a WWII-era fighter (R29) due to a number of reasons that include the Greek government's apparent hostility, the coomplications involved with the Spanish Civil War and the secrecy around Soviet actions, left few "traces". For one, there is no confirmed picture or image of the plane. It is unfortunate that I did not have the chance to talk to Mr. Pangakis, one of chief engineers at the factory before he passed, in 2003, while Greek Civil Aviation Authority that had kept files about the factory, apparently destroyed most of the material during a move to a new location.

I would like to ask anybody who would have any more information about (especially) the AEKKEA RAAB R-29, any photo/image of it and/or info what happened with it in Spain or the Soviet Union to contact me at my discussion page. This would be greatly appreciated, and it would definitely contribute to aviation history in general. Skartsis (talk) 10:39, 23 September 2009 (UTC)Reply
