If you mean that there are a couple of pages missing, I think you're right. I have a microfilm copy of the 1945 reel (from before dvd was invented) but someone who had been to BA-MA sent me photocopies of two pages the IWM must have missed.

If you mean that there are no daily reports for January, a lot of March and all of April and May, then I don't think anyone has those. The reporting system in the West seems to have faltered once the Allies got across the Rhein. The separate Luftflotte 6 material (in the USA?) does have good loss data for most of 1945 but just for that Luftflotte.
