Re: Italian FW190's?

Thanks for your replies. I am convinced that there were no Italian FW190's myself, however, Norwegian author and historian Cato Guhnfeldt, is convinced that Heglund is right. He wrote, and published, Heglund's biography "Høk over høk" some years ago, and in his latest work "Spitfire Saga" he again mentions the Italian FW's.
I have had a belief that these planes could have been from an Erganzungsgeschwader based in the Cognac area, but the JG refs in this thread seem more likely.
