Victories of French fighter force during Phoney War
I've read that a number of confirmed victories ranging between 75 and 80 had been credited to the French Air Force fighter pilots in the period of the Phoney War ( 3 September 1939 - 9 May 1940).
Does anyone know, how many of them are corroborated by real Luftwaffe losses ? Does exist a statistical summary on this campaign like those present in the last pages of the books of Arnaud Gillet on the Battle of France? I hold (and have read) the wonderful book of Ehrengardt-Foreman-Shores-Weiss-Olsen on the matter, but don't want to go through its 350 pages to make my own totals. Anyone could help? Ludovico |
