Hello Neil,

There is no much information in the J.B. FRAPPE's book about the event which interests you :

In the Luftwaffe victories list of the book, it is noted, dated 14 July 1944, in Caen's area :
/ 19h17 - Oberst. Ihlefeld - St/JG 1 - P-51 - UU 1 (Caen)
/ 19h17 - Hptm. Grilawski - III./JG 1 - P-51 AU (Falaise)
/ ? - Uffz. Vogel - III./JG 1 - P-51 ?
/ 19h30 - Fw. Kutzera - III./JG 1 - Spitfire - UU (Caen)
/ ? - Ofw. Barann - III./JG 1 - Spitfire - ?
/ 19h32 - Gefr. Berger - I./JG 5 - Spitfire - TT 8-9 (Bayeux)
/ 19h34 - Uffz. Schröder - I./JG 5 - Spitfire - TU 8 (North Caen)

Concerning the battle, J.P. Frappé doesn't give many additional precisions : he just tells a battle took place at the beginning of the evening, with the same information that above (winners, units, hours, downed aircraft, places). He tells, too, a 7./JG 1 pilot (Uffz. Orend) was shot down by Spitfires during the battle ; this pilot bailed out, at 19h45, and was captured, unharmed, at 6 km S.E. of Arromanches.
