Royal Air Force Fighter Command Losses
I've noticed that Ian Allan has a revised edition of Royal Air Force Fighter Command Losses of the Second World War: Operational Losses, aircraft and crews 1939-1941 (red star) by Norman Franks. Has anyone seen this book yet? Does it describe how the losses came about and by who.
