Galina Pavlovna Ermak née Burdina (Russian: Галина Павловна Бурдина; 24 March 1919 – 25 November 2006) was a fighter pilot for the Soviet Air Forces during the Second World War.
Galina Burdina grew up in a large family; her father had died during the Russian Civil War.
When she was 17, she started to learn how to fly gliders and went on to study at the civil aviation pilot school in Ulyanovsk.
Because of her curly blonde hair, she was later recognized by a Romanian pilot after the Soviet occupation of Romania, as Burdina had flown so close to the ground that her features were remembered.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, she lived in Riga, Latvia as a stateless person until her death in 2006.
