Great Britain, 1940. France has fallen, following the fates of Poland, Belgium, Luxemburg, and the Netherlands. Adolf Hitler's powerful armies have all of Europe at heel. England stands alone. Luckily for Churchill, one Englishman had seen the future. R.J. Mitchell was a young engineer who'd developed a remarkable vision for a fighter airplane like no other-fast, nimble, capable to overcoming any other plane and blasting from the sky. He called it the Spitfire. By the time Hitler launches thousands of German bombers against London, Mitchell is long dead. But his legacy will save England. The ferocious and personal struggle soon taking place between fighter pilots of the Royal Air Force and German Luftwaffe is set against the backdrop of wartime London. The fate of the British people hinges on a small group of elite pilots stopping this onslaught.
