If the first date is changed, it would demand correction of formations 186 and 187.
Aircraft:
44 LeO-451 - entered service in combat units only in 9/39 (now 1/35).
It could carry much heavier bomb load: according to a Czech book "Letadla 1939-1945 Francie a Polska": 2x500 kg in wings and 5x200 kg in a hull. Safer would be 7x200kg.
Btw: bombs of French aircraft should be scaled in kg, not lb (typical: 10, 50, 100, 200, 500 kg - however, according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lior%C3...Olivier_LeO_45 200 kg bombs were actually 224 kg)
Same for Vichy #147
There could be added some earlier level bomber - easiest will be to copy
Potez 540 from Rep. Spanish oob, from 1935. It could carry 4x225 kg bombs according to a quoted book.
525 Breguet 695 - most numerous and earlier variant was 693; 695 was delivered only from 6/40. A typical armament is stated 8x50 kg bombs in a bay, I don't know if they could carry heavier ones (maybe 4x100?).
Same for Vichy #145
526 Curtiss Hawk 75 - in French service they were used from spring of 1939 (1/40) and were armed with 4 or 6 MGs 7.5mm, but there's no information, that they could carry bombs.
After 1940 campaign, they were used by Vichy only, and then by the Free French from 11/1942
Same for Vichy #143
