Now, with BoB beginning in July 1940, there is no chance to see a He111 of KG 51 during this campaign.

Zorin -- I am very knowledgable about the BoB. Just to say this first.
The BoB beginning in July (10th) is very much a british definition. You will find very different view in Germany. Anti-shipping raids were conducted immediately after and even during the French campaign, and yes, 51 was equipped with He 111 during that time, until almost end june 40.
