Notes:

Close-up of cockpit windows and the 'air scoop', which is in a peculiar place: on the upper side of the engine. The air duct curves down into the armoured tub which also protects the pilot. The radiator is placed at the rear end of the Mikulin AM-38F engine, protected by the armoured fwd fuselage to reduce vulnerability. **UPDATE** A 3-part video of the actual recovery from Lake Balaton has recently been uploaded at Youtube, part 1 is here: http://tinyurl.com/3t69dng
