In the summer of 1940, Britain stood alone. For three long months,
brave young RAF pilots took off every day, ready to defend British
skies against large-scale Luftwaffe raide. 'The Few' were young,
but they were trained and they were determined. Eighty years on the
last of the pilots to fly in the Battle of Britain are feted, and
their part in World War II is widely remembered. This pocket manual
covers the training that these young pilots would have had, and the
air combat tactics they were taught to use against the German
raiders. It also covers the role of the ground crews; control and
command systems; anti-aircraft defences; and radar and raid
detection.
