Luftwaffe pilots never score Probable claims. Look on Walter Nowotny photo when he was captured with chield showing "Congratulations with 300th victory!". But "officialy" he had only 255 on Ostront.
They just OR confirm it (even really strange and optimistic claims as Hartmann's or Rudorffer's) and pilot could place abschussebalken on fin, OR NOT confirm it, and it was no matter how many "unconfirmed" victories pilot has - they never counts officially.
So, if as we all see M8+IP show us 19 confirmed victories, we need to find "missed" victory.
