How many victories Ilmari Juutilainen scored in WW2?

 

I guess 100. Can you post wether it is up or down? and was he a pilot or something else.

 

He was Finnish fighter pilot. Without using google, I'd say 92 victories.

pretty good guess but not right......it's less than 100 and more than 92... btw. he killed all those enemy airplanes and sustained no damage from enemy fighters whatsoever, no single hit on his plane.
