The Germans would not have accepted them as equal allies. If they had chosen your suggested route they would have merely preserved the Polish infrastructure for the benefit of the Germans.

Sure they became a slave state and stayed one for decades. But frankly, I don't see how they could have avoided it. Would victorious Nazis been less bad than the Soviets - fat chance.

If any of our current bestselling thriller writers had written a book about a Eastern European Country that sent most of their top leaders to Russia on one plane, not many would have believed that premise. Nor would they believe that the pilots were told several times not to land at that airport because of the fog. Nor would they believe that the pilots would go ahead and try to land in that fog at the edge of the forest. No one would believe it, and neither do I. So how about maybe 3 or 4 terrorists (moles in their own government) who were holding the plane's occupants captive, and demanded the pilots land the plane, or they would start killing people, including the President. Nahhhhhhhhh, don't look under that rug. Putin's in charge, and we all know how that "investigation" will end.
