80 years ago, from June until October of 1940, probably the most famous aerial battles in history took place known as the Battle of Britain. The Royal Air Force claimed victory in the skies, holding back the German Luftwaffe and preventing a naval invasion by denying air superiority over the Luftwaffe. Months of huge aerial engagements, intense dogfighting and fierce clashes forever sealed the event as a significant chapter in the second world war.
Brave contributions from all over the world, including most famously Polish and Czech pilots joined the fight to take on an overwhelming force that had swept through most of Europe and surrounded Great Britain. Pilots fought relentlessly, often without much rest between battles, with the fate of Britain sitting almost entirely on their shoulders. This event forever immortalized ny Winston Churchill’s famous words describing those that took part with “never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few”.
