Summary:
"Two months before the outbreak of the Second World War, eighteen-year-old Geoffrey Wellum becomes a fighter pilot with the RAF... Desperate to get in the
air
, he makes it through basic training to become the youngest Spitfire pilot in the prestigious
92
Squadron
. Thrust into combat almost immediately, Wellum finds himself flying several sorties a day, caught up in terrifying dogfights with German Me 109s. Over the coming months he and his fellow pilots play a crucial role in the Battle of
Britain
. But of the friends that take to the
air
alongside Wellum many never return."--Back cover.
