Hello purdey12345!

I put both of plains in my favorite, because I like historical plains and special thoose who have a great combat experiances.....

In the book Battle of Britain they mensioned that the young pilotes from UK were inspired by Eerol Flynn movie(don¨t remember the title of it).

The battle was realy hard....
