One of the points IIRC was that the Fleming's victim exploded in the air. There is only one candidate for the collision, Uffz. Mayer of 9. Staffel, but he is reported to be lost in another location. Of course we cannot exclude the pilot in question survived or was reported on another date.

I suppose one of the reason was lack of tactical knowledge and experience in flying large formations. Dog fight in squadron strenght is a little bit more complicated than the one of a section of two.

PS I always thought Skywalker's character was childish and stupid. Anyway I consider this thread closed because Christer did not manage to prove his point German 'superaces' were downed because overwhelming numerical superiority of Allies.
