On 10.5.1918 JG1 engaged a flight of 80 Sqdn Camels.

in my records 6 victories were claimed over 80Sdqn , 3 by Jasta 11 and 3 by Jasta 6.

Theres also info that Ltn Orlando Bridgeman, the leader of 80 Sqdns patrol shot down two Fokkers and helped crash two others during the fight.

Is there any information on wich german pilots were shot down by Bridgeman?

any help is apreciated. Cheers Joao

On 10May18 JG I had no losses. I think this is probably just another example of British OC. R.

That would be my guess too.
Trusting the victory records of the Allied aces i really dont know how did the Jasta lost so many pilots.
For instance, the 2 against 20 of May 7th of Atkey and Gass...wich Jasta were all those Pfalz scouts from? are there any losses recorded of that?

Sorry, again. No German single-seaters lost to Bristol F.2b's this date. R.
