Re: Top Ten Hurricane aces

Good morning Gentlemen,

I strongly recommend Many Souffan's thrilling Edgar Kain biography in ACES N°8.
Despite my limited French skills I had a very good time working it through because the description of Kain's career is so vivid.
His final total is given as 17 confirmed, 3 unconfirmed and 2 damaged.
In older sources a total of 16 kills can often be found.
Which one is the claim in question ?

Cheers,

Michael
