If memory serves me correctly, there's an excellent bust of him in the Hall of Aviation in Southampton.

"Victory was made possible by the Spitfire."

Wonder if the stats boys and the ladies and gents who worked at Hawker aircraft agree with that!

I visited Kermit Weeks museum in Florida last year, and their hype claims that the P51 Mustang won the war.............all by itself!
