About this product

Product Information

The Spitfire turns 80 on 5 March 2016, and the passion for the RAF's best-loved fighter is running at an all-time high. There are more than 50 Spitfires flying in the world today, and John Dibbs has shot virtually all of them 'on the wing' in his breathtaking style. This eye-catching book combines a unique collection of stunning photos with poignant first-hand accounts of flying the aeroplane in combat, from some of the most famous aces to ever pilot the Spitfire, and from some of the pilots forgotten by history. Chronicling the history of the most iconic of British aircraft this is a 'must have' purchase for aviation enthusiasts.

  • Spitfire the Legend Lives On

    For those unaccustomed to specific photographers, John Dibbs is in my opinion the best there is in the business of Warbird photography. The reasons for this are his exciting shots of aircraft on the wing in the natural environment of fighter planes, straight up, diving, rolling and performing as they should. Additionally the planes, in this case Spitfires are always in excellent focus and are preserved in a picture during a dynamic life moment. The text and additional period photographs make the showcasing of these surviving aircraft an excellent volume worth having...now only if Mr. Dibbs can shoot the PR. XIX at FL450 streaming a contrail... A book well worth your time and money

  • Outstanding book

    The photos in this book have to be seen to be believed. Unbelievable quality. The text is well written by someone who certainly knows his onions. It's obvious that the research was taken seriously too. This is an unmissable book deserving a place on the bookshelf of not only fans of the Spitfire but of virtually everybody.
