Re: RAF Pilots vs Luftwaffe Jets
Just a minor point: 401 Squadron was an RCAF unit, operating within the RAF.
Their first jet kill was on 5 October 1944, over Arnhem-Nijmegan. The claim was shared by 5 pilots.
The RCAF's first solo jet kill was on 25 December 1944, S/L J.E. Collier of 403 Squadron, RCAF in a Spitfire XVI.
