CPBelt, thanxabigbunch for going to this trouble. The new squadron cards are everything I dreamed of.
I checked the new cards vs. the cards from Lost Squadrons and found several errors. I have given corrected values from LS:
Fairy Fulmar, Half Roll 8
Fokker T.V, Bomb 4
M.S. 406, Maneuver Loaded 1
D.520, Level Speed 6, Armament 2F
I also thought it odd that the picture of the H75 A-4 carries Vichy stripes. It's not an error, but odd for the Blitzkrieg era.
The two missing planes are one French and one Dutch:

With regard to Polish, Dutch and French formations, my understanding is that every air force in the world used three-plane formations until the Luftwaffe introduced the four-plane schwarme, which was adopted eventually by all air forces, at different times, depending on combat experience and adaptability.
