Re: Ace vs. Ace

There are no clear evidence that Mölders was shot down by Malan and Wick by Dundas. These are only speculations.

Here are Polish “trails”:

29.04.1942. W/Cdr Marian Pisarek (12-1-2) , Northolt Wing CO, was shot down and killed by Hptm. Joachim Müncheberg (135), G.Kdr II./JG 26.
09.05.1941. P/O Jan Zumbach (12 1/3-5-1 at war’s end) from 303. Squadron was shot down by Oblt. Wilhelm Stange (12), St.K. 8./JG 3. Zumbach bailed out without wounds.

On the other hand:

21.06.1941. Obstlt. Adolf Galland’s plane (104), G.Kdre JG 26, was PROBABLY hit by future Polish ace P/O Bolesław Drobiński (7-1 1/3-0 at war’s end) from 303. Squadron. Galland escaped unhurt (his Messerschmitt was 40% damaged).

Cheers,
Artur
