The BoB wasn't about fighter vs fighter. The RAF prime goal was to attack bombers. Bomber losses did count and they counted more than fighter losses.
Imagine if the LW only sent fighters over? LOL! Think maybe they should have done it that way?
As for a mauling, Sept 15th when the RAF was supposed to have been worn down they did just what to the massed attack that day?
For whatever reason, Hitler was forced to leave the back door open and that did seal the doom of the Third Reich. So who won?
