Moi Chug! Not on your life. I enjoy these tales. I was one who watched a small part of the BoB in mid August 1940 overhead just a mile or so from Croydon. Then met some of the 'few' in 2000 who were ACTUALLY involved. A thrill of my lifetime I can tell you. I have a picture of some of the few - mostly 501 Sqdn.
Watched the 'Spitfire Women' on BBC4 last night - what utter bravery and skill! I doubt that there are many who could handle a four engined aeroplane these days - ON THEIR OWN!
The BBC have pulled the stops out this year and my recorders have been working overtime.....
