In this 75th anniversary year, the publishers of FlyPast magazine present a special 100-page tribute to Britain’s greatest fighter and possibly the best known combat aircraft in the world. Using extensive archive images and artwork, renowned aviation writers and researchers present a salute to the Spitfire’s incredible heritage – past and present.
Featuring:
Famous Son
Ken Ellis pays tribute to the shy, studious man who was ‘mad on aeroplanes’ and created the Spitfire.
Don’t Touch Anything!
Supermarine’s new fighter was right from the start – Steve Appleby charts the life of the prototype.
Stars and Stripes
Just what was an FS-1? Jonathan Garraway and Andrew Thomas examine USAAF and US Navy use of the Spitfire.
‘Aces’
Andrew Thomas presents a directory of pilots who achieved five or more victories while flying Spitfires.
47 varieties
…well almost! Daniel Ford presents a guide to the Spitfire and Seafire variants.
and much more!
