Or a third of the Hurri/Spit squadrons at the time.
I'm starting with a low number. It's a definite which is more than I've seen for the other side of the argument.
I've found combat reports that back this up, and as Pilots had to record use of 12lb I think there must be more.

Its interesting that Pips and Kurfurst believe that the number was 25% of FC and 125 aircraft in May
I have 10 Hurricane squadrons and 3 Spitfire squadrons with combat reports in May alone.
Hurricane 85, 1, 73, 79, 87, 151, 56, 17, 229 and 245 squadrons
Spitfire, 74, 54 and 19 squadrons
