flying skills. Unfortunately, she died at the age of 26 in air-to-air fighting against German
planes although she already shot down one plane and hit a second before being shot down
herself. Interested in flying at an early age, Lydia Ultvyak joined a flying club and
performed her first solo flight at the age of 15. She became a fight instructor after
graduating from the military flying school. After the German attack on the Soviet Union in
1941. Utvyak joined the Soviet Air Force and soon achieved great success. Like Budanova,

Yekaterina Budanova Lydia Utvyak is often considered one of the world's most famous
female fighter pilots.
