By late 1943 could the Luftwaffe still have reversed its fortunes and won the skys over Europe back from the Western Allies? All the good research would seem to say no. It wasn't just a lack of fuel. It was deteriorating aircraft quality and performance (not just the "on the books" figures but in things like reliability, quality of workmanship etc.), poor pilot quality outside the few experten still flying, lack of technology to support the fighters, the list seems endless.
