A silly question RE: Luftwaffe over Germany...
After reading through it, I noticed the authors 'regretfully' could not include the Defense of the Romanian Oilfields in their book; I was wondering why not? After all they included the air defense of Hungary in the project; Or could it be that Romania was not included in the overall 'Defense of the Reich' umbrella, in spite of it's importance?

One day I should tackle that vast subject. But not before 2010...

Nick, I did not read that book, yet, but since the title says 'over Germany' and 'Defence of the Reich', the authors missed nothing. Romania was far from the Reich but Hungary was at the neighbourhood (since the Anschluss). So, the classical Reichsverteidigung units - even the single engined ones - flew a lot of sorties over Hungary - as the Hungarian Bf 109's did it over eastern Austria as well -, but not over Romania (altough the German defence was very strong over Romania too). |
