Re: Fighter pilots' guts

when i read about BOB in christer B. posts
i wonder, why people still believe, hitlers next serious target was great britain.
repeat , i said "serious target".
see what the allied forces have needed in the invasion in the normandy.
useless to talk about the short range of the 109, not very good defend fire from the bombers.
also with an poor leadership.
IMO ,a attack without serious planing. just a big bluff with huge losses for both sides.

and further , how to land in england ?
a weak german navy against the best navy in europa.
honest, i think its more a myth than reality .
remember, the brits produced twice the number of fighters than the germans in these days of BOB.

but i am open for different opinions.

( i think , my post is a little bit off topic , sorry )
