Breaking the Line by Ivan Berryman.
Just seconds from opening fire with a broadside that will devastate her opponent, HMS Victory prepares to pass the stern of the French flagship Bucentaure, closely followed by the three-deckers HMS Temeraire and HMS Neptune. With guns unable to bear on the enemy fleet during the slow approach the British ships had endured terrible punishment with Victorys sails holed, her wheel smashed and her mizzen top shot away.

Phantom Country by Simon Atack.
At the height of the Cold War during the 1970s and through the 80s, low level, fast-jet training sorties were absolutely crucial to Britains air defences. This was an era of the true, thoroughbred supersonic jet fighter like arguably the greatest of all jet combat aircraft of that time; the McDonnell Douglas F.4 Phantom. Scorching down the peaceful beauty of the Spey river valley, Scotland, four RAF Phantom FG-1s led by (at that time) Wg. Cdr. Ian Macfadyen and his navigator flying XV500, flash over Craiglockhart Castle on an ultra low-level training sortie during the squadrons period of transition from its formation at RAF Conningsby to its home station at RAF Leuchars.

The Yoxford Boys by Simon Atack.
When a radio broadcast by German propagandist Lord Haw Haw sneeringly announced the secret deployment of the 357th Fighter Group to England in 1943 as the arrival of The Yoxford Boys it became the nick-name for one of the most potent air combat groups of WW II. Based at Leiston, East Anglia, P-51B Mustang OLD CROW was the personal aircraft of Captain Clarence E Bud Anderson, 363rd Fighter Squadron/ 357th Fighter Group. On June 29 1944 Bud was leading his Squadron when they engaged enemy fighters on an escort mission to Leipzig. In the ensuing fight that day Anderson shot down three FW190s in a short period of time. Captain Clarence E Bud Anderson flew two tours and 116 combat missions with a total of 16.25 kills in the Old Crow.

Supreme Courage by Philip West.
Skuas flew from HMS Ark Royal through much of the 1940 campaign off Norway, and one is seen getting airborne in typically grey North Sea weather.

Bill Lucy DSO) flew Skuas and the first warship (Konigsberg) destroyed by dive bombing was sunk by Skuas.

Dawn of a Legend by Stephen Brown.
In what became a familiar sight over East Anglia during World War II, RAF de Havilland Mosquitoes head out at low level towards the North Sea. These aircraft are Mosquito B. Mk IVs of No 2 Group, 105 Squadron operating from Horsham St. Faith in the summer of 1942.
