Title: Squadron numbers HELP...
Post by: OntosMk1 on June 18, 2003, 05:01:53 PM

Ok pilots,

This is what i'm asking.
How do squadron's break down number wise (i.e. Element=2 planes, Flight= 4, squadron=8 and so on...)
Im looking for the US squadron break down...
Element = #?
Flight = ?
Squadron = ?
Group = ?
Wing = ?
Command = ?

Title: A question of Numbers...

Depends on country I think.

Germans

Stab 2 or 4 Command flight

Rotte and Schwarm had 2 & 4. Dont know which is which though.

Staffel had 12 and then 16.

Geschwader Had 3 or 4 Staffel plus command flight (Stab I think)
3x12+4=40 Early war.
4x16+4+68 Late war.

Might have mixed some of those up.

Every country had its own organization.

Im sure someone can tell you about each of them.
