DaveWatts:
The two reports the Langdon has are in Jagd in Flandern Himmel. I do have any conflict with either report in Jagd in Flandern Himmel. page 171 for 18 March 1918, 66th victory, and page 179 for 20 April 1918, 80th victory and acknowledgement from Kogenluft.
The English translations from PRO of these and the other copies is what I have a problem with.
Peter Kilduff. He was influenced by the change of opinions of A.E.Ferko and Alex Imrie that stemed from an article in the Windsock by Ray Rimell. Prior to that every one believed that the all red Fok.DR.I at Lechelle was 477/17. The problem is there is no way that you can get 425/17 to Lechelle from available records. To paraphase the song, Wishing won't make it so. gerntlemen, We are going around in circles.
Blue skies,
