Description: The Squadrons! series from RAF-IN-COMBAT.com provide detailed operational histories of aircraft in service with British RAF and Commonwealth units. Each volume gives unit-by-unit histories of squadrons and flights operating the type, historical photos and also includes several pages of color art profiles of the aircraft to illustrate camouflage schemes. The first volume in this series of slim books documenting British and Commonwealth use of specific aircraft types during WWII. This one records British Royal Air Force (RAF) use of the Spitfire Mk.VI, the first attempt to create a version of the Spitfire optimized for high altitude operation, including the extended wingtips that spoil the classic elliptical shape. Even though relatively few of this model were made, approximately 99, it did manage to wear both the European day fighter Ocean Grey/Dark Green camouflage scheme and the desert Mid-stone/Dark Earth colors. Remember to check out my other book sales for opportunities to combine shipping. These are all books from my own collection built up over many years but now it’s time to reduce the stock (and make room to buy more books!).
