1. Exact number of kills is unknown. According to some sources Abel Guides achieved 11 victories - six fighter and five bomber aircrafts (Polák, Tomáš: Esa meziválečného období, part two, in Plastic Kits Revue, No. 44, 1995), other credit him with 10 victories - six fighter and four bomber aircrafts (Russian correspondent M. Kolcov, Shores, Christopher: Air Aces, Presidio Press, Novato, California 1983). At a conservative estimate he achieved only three confirmed victories (Lareau, P.: L'Aviation republicaine Espagnole 1936-1939, Docavia Vol. 8, Ed. Lariviére, Paris 1978, Šnajdr, Miroslav: Hořící Španělsko, Votobia, Olomouc 2001).

Murray, London), other say three (Thornberry, R.S.: André Marlaux et l'Espagne, Libraire Droz, Genéve 1977) or even 5 kills (Lareau, P.: c.d., Šnajdr, M.: Dewoitine D.371 a D.372, in Historie a plastikové modelářství, No. 6, 2005). Jean Darré supposedly achieved other five unconfirmed victories during World War One.
