Greetings Helmut !

You may use the website that Volker mentions above, or you may prefer to use its original source: the wonderful book The Jasta Pilots by Norman Franks, and our own Frank "Bill" Bailey and Rick Duiven, from Grubb Street. The Jasta histories given at the website are quoted directly (and I mean verbatim ) from this book. However, you can find much more great information in the book itself.

In the similar Grubb Street book "Over the Front" by Franks and Bill Bailey, there are very short French escadrille histories. They don't provide a list of airfields, but you can generally find out what Army sector that the escadrille was found in and when.

As for the British squadrons, well, the information is out there, but compiling the kind of data you ask for is such a massive task I don't think anyone has done it for the entire RFC/RNAS/RAF. Ocf course, I could be wrong.

Greg
