Re: Luftwaffe planes shot down by NZ ace - can you help?

18° Gruppo was the only italian unit that operated CR.42 in that theatre.
It was formed by three Squadriglie: 83a, 85a, 95a. He had a full complement of 50 aircraft so, that day, I think that all (or almost all) the aircraft took part to the action, called by the italians "operazione Cinzano"
