The Battle of Britain: 10 July - 31 October 1940
The Battle of Britain needs no introduction, however...
This is just a small selection of the 114 images that make up my project to illustrate each and every day of the Battle of Britain in time for the 80th anniversary.
Top tip: when you accept a bet late in the evening after a full day in the pub with your RAF re-union mates, nail down the scope of the bet - I mistakenly assumed I was illustrating from 10 July to 15 September (Battle of Britain Day, right?). Wrong! The Battle officially ended 31 October 1940.
This all-consuming project took over a year and a half to complete but I finished the final piece on the morning of 14 September 2020, and all for a bottle of 18 year old single malt...
