Re: Curtiss P-40 top ten ace list
Regarding the number of missions Caldwell flew, I messaged Kristen and this was her reply:
According to his flying logbook, caldwell carried out 496 operational sorties, equating to 1116 hours. I don't have the time to check those figures, nor to determine if he counted things like gun tests etc as sorties. The log book is in the AWM private records area if you are ever in canberra and want to check. Best wishes, Kristen
