Re: Ground kills. How they were credited to LW fighter pilots?
Ground strafe kills from everything I've read didn't count as air victories. Other wise the 22Jun41 would have put a lot of pilots score way up there. As Denes noted planes taking off or landing just off the ground would probably be considered an air victory. I've also read about Luftwaffe pilots finishing off aircraft that forced landed after a dogfight to insure its destruction but only the pilot that brought it down received the credit.
