Of all the chapters of the Second World War, none are as daring, nor as intriguing, as the Air War. In the skies over Europe, some of the most iconic aircraft to ever take flight, did battle in a life or death struggle for supremacy.

In this documentary Mat is shown around by Kris Hendrix, a historian at the RAF Museum.
