Interesting....

In 1949, Lt. Arkadiusz Korobczyński defected with Il-2m3 attack aircraft (No 3) from Polish Navy's air base in Wicko Morskie to Gotland Island in Sweden

On November 7, 1957 Lt. Kożuchowski from 31st Fighter Squadron in Łask defected with Lim-2 (MiG-15bis, No 1919) and crash-landed near Halland in Sweden.
 
Oh boy.. who was the translator for the Russian captions ?

The pilot's name should have been И. Мучик or И. Мучeк. So the English name should be Muchik or Muchek.
Here is a shot of his kite after the belly landing in Sweden , May 1949.
