Its also worth pointing out that the Luftwaffe suffered 258 aircraft destroyed in Poland with an additional 263 damaged of which 60% were unrecoverable.
Roughly Luftwaffe 420 aircraft lost in the invasion of Poland.
Whilst not huge losses compared to the 1887 lost in the Battle of Britain that is still pretty impressive for an air force whose front-line fighter was the PZL P11C.
