The Other Few by Roy Cross.

A pair of 238 Squadron Hawker Hurricane fighters at the height of the Battle of Britain patrol the southern counties. The Hurricane is sometimes overlooked for its important role in the Battle of Britain. During the Battle 238 Squadron losses would be 17, the third highest for Royal Air Force squadrons which participated in the Battle of Britain.


Spitfire - The Last and the First by Roy Cross.

Two Spitfires - the world's most famous fighter aeroplane and the mosy outstanding success of British wartime aviation. The whole production lifespan is encapsulated in this image. The prototype machine K5054, built in 1936 is seen flying behind the final Mk24 of 1946. From the first flight in March 1936, it took over two years before the first RAF squadr (No.19) was equipped with the production Mk.I version in August 1938, and by June 1940 there were only nineteen Spitfire squadrons. They formed a significant part of the force that fought and won the Battle of Britain against the Luftwaffe.
