Report from France 1939 to 1940
 
Hello everyone! I will use a translator so that I can explain myself clearly.

On the first lines, we learned that a combined French-English Air Force headquarters was created as early as August 1939.

Do you have the names of the generals?
Who was the commander-in-chief of this headquarters? French or English?

thnx!

And hello, I don't think so. Gamelin was the commander-in-chief of the ground forces. So, with Lord Gort, yes, he couldn't manage the air force. Vuillemin, yes, he was the commander-in-chief of the French air force. And since I was also able to find information, Barrat commanded the BAF. BEF for Lord Gort, and the BAF for Air Marshal Barrat!
