Description - Spitfire Pilot by David Crook
"I immediately turned and dived down on him - he was a sitting target, but before I got to him a Hurricane appeared and shot him down in flames."
In 1940 the RAF faced a highly efficient German Air Force. Three thousand airmen stood between England and the might of Hitler's Third Reich. *Spitfire Pilot* is a first-hand account of the Battle of Britain, seen through the eyes of a member of the famous 609 Squadron, which shot down more than 100 planes.
The journal begins with David Crook's training at Church Fenton. However, Crook and the pilots of 609 Squadron soon found themselves facing the formidable Luftwaffe, often hopelessly outnumbered against the Messerschmidts and Junkers. Many airmen did not make it back alive.
