That all is Barretts fault - I mean William E. Barrett. He wrote "Was Fonck a Faker?" Everybody can order the article from the Ferko Collcetion - and make his own conclusions. I did the same. I am convinced Fonck got more "kills" (but never 75) than Bishop but I would never wish to have such a guy in my squadron.
Barretts subtitle was: "How could he be when he had 75 kills to his credit? But youŽll wonder after you read about this ace whose mouth was his worst enemy"
BTW: Also Barrett made mistakes in his article but despite that I would always prefer Guynemer against Fonck.
