Re: Friendly fire WWII

Tomas, I can't agree with your statement that "Frindly fire was really rare during World war Two air fighting."

Because there are at least hundred of documented cases. Your two examples (Bader and 609 Sqn) are during actual battles vs Allied and German aircraft, and in this kind of cases it is very difficult, if not impossible, to know what have happened.
But many of the cases listed in this thread or in Brian's "Blue on Blue" book are situation when only people of one side were present, and attacked each other.
