After reading the book the film lives up to my expectations. Characters are extremely well portrayed and the input by Geoffrey Wellum is captivating. Fantastic if you are a spitfire fanatic. A must see!!!

an excellent film, some nice aircraft scenes, some taken from the 1960s film Battle of Britain, well acted - I particularly liked the bit where experienced ground crew have to help an inexperienced pilot to start his Spit, it was touching and very true to life (according to my father who was a ground crew member), they had seen it all before, the poor young pilot just out of school suddenly faced with this powerful machine and a deadly enemy. I am surprised the film is not better known, well worth watching
