Comments:
  1. Many sources told that Pierre (Petar) Marinovič is the French or he is the Russian; but indeedly he was a son of Serbian (father) and Polish (mother) parents (Goworek, Tomasz: Pierwsze samoloty mysliwskie lotnictwa polskiego, Aerohobby, Wydawn. Czasopism i Ksiazek Technicznych, Warszawa 1991; War is Over - WW1 aces of Russian Empire, http://wio.ru/ww1a/ace1.htm).
  2. Not confirmed victories. Stefan Pawlikowski is sometimes credited with three victories during Polish-Soviet War (Skulski, Przemyslaw - Sankowski, Wojciech: Asy Wojny 1914-1918, Ace Publication 1994) or one confirmed victory (Magnus, Allan: Air Aces Home Page, http://users.accesscomm.ca/magnusfamily/airaces1.htm).
  3. He was flying by Imperial Russian Air Service (Императорскый Военно-Воздушный Флот) before Russian revolution.
  4. Antoni Wróblewski was A. Wroniecki during his service in Imperial German Military Air Service (Fliegertruppe / Luftstreitkräfte).
