The 21 (Petershausen M/Y) and 28 (Zagreb drome) bombers are not included in the 155 bombers at the target area Regensburg.

Leo, thank you so much for that, you have explained it perfectly, and I think I am a little more aware of how the 'Effective' totals are compiled now!

Great help, and thanks for your time.

Regards Richard.
