Overclaiming of Allied pilots is discussed since the end of the war. Those were German victories which were portrayed as modest, absolutely accurate, and not debatable. It is funny to see a fury when they are put in doubt, among those, who did not hesitate to blame Allied pilots.
The evidence is all around, there are combat reports, mission reports or loss reports for Allied combatants, and it is possible not only to establish if there were any losses, but also if there were any engagements. If there are victories submitted at the time and place no Allied aircraft operated at all, what is the explanation?
Mind you, the opposite is not possible, the German paperwork is fragmentary at best.
