Re: List of "aces" in Bf110 units during 1939-40 with 10 or more victories
It is quite misleading to equate the bars on a rudder with the officially confirmed total as has been pointed out here. As we all know the Luftwaffe confirmation prossess could take months or even years to complete. However pilots would have their rudder scores updated at the time of the claim. There are numerous examples which can be sited, the earliest I know of is Werner Mölders in Spain where he had 15 bars on the tail of his Bf 109 although only 14 were "official."
