RAF night fighter successes, 1940
 

Does anyone know what was the RAF's most successful night between the opening of the London Blitz (7 September) and the Coventry Blitz (14 November)?

I'm assuming that there would be a lot of nights with one or zero victories.

The only night with any more than two claims is 15/16.09.40


20:30 66 Sqn Sgt C A Parsons Spitfire I -
He111 Destroyed NE of Maidstone

23:59 141 Sqn P/O J Waddingham Defiant I N1552
He111 Destroyed Maidstone-Tonbridge

00:40 600 Sqn F/L C A Pritchard Blenheim If - F
He111 Probable Bexhill

01:00 605 Sqn F/L A A McKellar Hurricane I P3965
He111 Destroyed

01:16 141 Sqn P/O J Waddingham Defiant I N1552
He111 Probable Kent

Thank you Martin,

I was trying to get some perspective on the zero successes on the night of the Coventry Blitz. It looks as if this was unexceptional, except perhaps in the number of sorties put up.
