Thanks, Manlio, for the addtional details on the operations of 119a Squadriglia. Any further incidents/accidents, other then I mentioned?

As for the reported shot down of Capitano Ruspoli on 27 August, I took it from (somewhat vague) indications found in Rumanian archive documents, tied with shootdowns of Rumanian Bf 109Es.

Do you have confirmation of the actual day when Ruspoli claimed a pair of victories in the area ofessa, but was also shot down and force landed (as proven by the photos posted by Ferdinando, too)?

Grazie tutti,
