Re: German & Allied radar
Hello Crumpp
Quote: ” The CRO would make up 99% of the losses by morning.” It should have but looking from scrambles of late morning of 15.9. it seems that that had not happened. Most sqns didn’t scramble the supposed 12 fighters but 10-11 fighters. Only 11 Group reserve sqns at Tangmere sent oversized sqns and they scrabled exactly same number of fighters than they had had serviceable in the evening of 14th. Quote:” Units did not repair or "own" the individual aircraft. As they were damaged, they were exchanged for new/repaired aircraft. The CRO would then repair and recycle the airframe.” I know and have known for years. Or IIRC more exactly sqns repaired their own a/c if they had capacity to do that, if not they exchanged damaged for new/repaired a/c. Juha
