RAF Biggin Hill Meteor F8 Print

Wonder if someone can answer a puzzle for me please. I was at a BAPC Meeting at the Midland Air Museum, Coventry a few years ago a notice a print for sale in the shop titled (I think) "Churchills Own, 600 Sqn Meteors scramble from Biggin Hill". They were being sold at a fiver. Can anyone confirm the title for me please and also the artist.

many thanks.

I think you will find that 615 County of Surrey Squadron was 'Churchill's own.' It is true that it became a Meteor Squadron based at Biggin hill but was originally equipped with Hurricane's at Kenley.
