Right, point me to it. I was merely putting your "winning easily" into the proper perspective - i.e. it being nonsense - and have stated nothing else ever since.

Since 1939, until the end of 1943, the fighter arm of the Luftwaffe had suffered about 800% losses, meaning every unit was completely wiped out and replaced 8 times. About 3 times in 1943 alone. Pilot losses were nearly half of that.
