Mickey Mount, flying his 602 Squadron MkII Spitfire, successfully attacks a Messerschmitt Me109 low over the cliffs of Beachy Head on the south coast during the Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940. Spitfires and Me109s were so evenly matched at this early point in the war that the outcome of such contests were usually decided by the skill of the competing pilots.

Combat Over Beachy Head by Nicolas Trudgian. 		Flying with JG21 at the outbreak of World War Two, Heinz Lange claimed his first victory in October 1939. Transferring to JG54, he flew 76 missions throughout the Battle of Britain, then scored 7 victories in the first week of the invasion of Russia. He commanded 1./JG54 from October 1941, then 3./JG51 from 1942 to 1944 before returning to JG54, then led IV./JG51. He is shown here in Bf109 F-2 of 1./JG.54 at Krasnagvardeisk, Russia, 1941. Awarded the Knight's Cross, he scored 70 victories in over 600 missions. He died in 2006.

Tribute to Heinz Lange by Ivan Berryman. 		One of the all time great fighter aces, Adolf Galland is depicted flying Bf 109E-4/N of Stab/JG26 in September 1940. Galland flew 705 combat missions during World War Two and was credited with a final tally of 104 aerial victories. He survived the war and died peacefully in February 1996.

Tribute to Generalleutnant Adolf Galland by Ivan Berryman. 		Credited with more than 130 victories in World War Two, Alfred Grislawksi scored 24 of these on the Western Front. He is depicted here flying his Me109 with JG53 in what would be his last combat on 26th September 1944. Having shot down a P-38 Lightning earlier in the day, he was shot down in the combat shown by the P-51 Mustang of American Ace Hub Zemke and bailed out. Opening his parachute very low for fear of being shot at, he landed hard and damaged vertebrae, and did not recover before the end of the war. Awarded the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, he died in 2003 aged 83.

Tribute to Alfred Grislawski by Ivan Berryman.
