Division 303 - Spitfire

2009-10-07T17:47:00.000+01:00

A Spitfire of the 303 quardron flown by Sqn.Ldr. Jan Zumbach with the 'Donald Duck' painted on its side which came from Zumbach's nickname.

The 303 squadron played a very significant role in the Battle of Britain joining more than 150 fellow Polish pilots in this crucial encounter. The squadron’s performance was extraordinary. It shot down 126 enemy planes and lost merely eight pilots in the effort, far surpassing the performance of any British squadron and earning itself permanent membership in the ranks of the most illustrious military formations in aviation history.

A Stuka in my Sights

2009-09-11T18:24:00.000+01:00

I have worked with Tom Neil for many years now and always wanted to paint him in action. Finally I had the opportunity this summer and I asked Tom for his most memorable sortie during the Battle. This is the result, a combat on 7th November when 249 Squadron dived from 16,000 ft through low cloud to suddenly come across Stukas and Me109s over a convoy in the Thames Estuary.
