Re: German day fighter top aces by plane

Yes,

It was a matter of rigging up Heinkel 111 with extra guns in the nose. The low speed of the Heinkel made it better suited to the slow-flying Russian night bombers.

Please forgive my paraphrasing but I gave the book away to one of my friends once Theo Boiten's 2 volume Nachtjagd War Diaries were released.

...But if needs be I can visit him and get the page number and the actual quote. Just let me know if it's vital to have it and I'll get the details for you.
