This is the personal account of an exceptional Spitfire test pilot and RAF and Fleet Air Arm fighter pilot. Starting with lively descriptions of the pre-war Airforce in the mid-1930s, Jeffrey Quill moves on to cover his fascination test flying experiences. He took charge of some of the most important military aircraft of the time and, in particular, the immortal Spitfire, from its experimental, prototype stage in 1936 when he worked with its chief designer, R.J. Mitchell, to the end of its production in 1948.
