I seriously doubt the F2b carried half a ton of bombs per mission either. The citation simply gives totals of the five raids, meaning about a 100 kilograms of explosives.

Kind regards,

Reinout! Thanks for catching my little joke. The citation is true but I was just wondering if anyone was really reading it.
