There were about 15 Me 109 F' s dispersed on theWestern boundary and the North-Western corner of the flying field and I was thinking of attackingthese when I saw three Me 109F' s in vic formation pointing Westwards from the Eastern end of the aerodrome. As I approached, the leader of this formation was running forward to take off. As hebecame airborne I came in astern of him, opening fire at 200 yards. He crashed violently into theground and the E/A made two complete somersaults forward and was wrecked. I banked right again and crossed out East of Calais. I received flak from batteries round the aerodrome and alsofrom points between the aerodrome and the coast, but was not hit. I claim one Me 109F destroyed( signed ) Demozay.France.
I am looking for details about this Luftwaffe loss.

Many thanks.
