Re: Battle of Britain - who shot what down?

It seems to me that this is one area that hasn't been exhaustively researched, not least because of the uncertainty when say a German pilot shot down a British aircraft but in turn was shot down himself, there wouldn't necessarily be any way of accrediting that in the melee of a dogfight..

However, this many years later we can establish what pilots took off from each side and who returned, so whilst it may not be possible to attribute a loss to a specific pilot, but perhaps to a likely unit.

Has this already been done, or is this an area that both the Allied and the Luftwaffe board experts can work on?
Tricky subjection-how about Hans Joachim Marseilles claims..
NOW EXPERTS- tell me who he shot down..the full 7 from the 10/8
