商品簡介
The RAF's most iconic fighter of World War Two, the Spitfire holds a special place in the hearts of the British public. In this book, the exploits of the pilots that flew the fighter during the Battle of Britain, in North Africa and the Mediterranean, in the defense of Australia and in the Far East, are chronicled through the experiences of 40 elite aviators who achieved the title of 'ace' by shooting down five or more enemy aircraft while at the controls of a Spitfire. All the key marks of Spitfire will be included, from the 1940-era Mk I, through the ubiquitous Mk V, to the Griffon-engined Mk XIV. This volume will include profiles on American, Australian, British, Canadian, French, Irish, New Zealand, Norwegian, Polish and South African pilots.
