- ट्रिवियाSpitfires weren't deployed to France in 1939-40. RAF Fighter Command resisted deploying Spitfires in France, preferring to save them for the defense of Britain; Spitfires were used to cover the evacuation at Dunkirk, but they were based in England. In the novel Hornet Squadron flew Hawker Hurricanes. Hurricanes were more numerous in 1939-40 because they were easier to build and cheaper. Because of their greater numbers it is often said that Hurricanes were the mainstay fighter during the Battle of Britain, not the Spitfire; in reality the two types worked in concert, with Hurricanes deployed to attack the bombers while Spitfires were used counter the Luftwaffe's escorting fighters.
- गूफ़All of the Spitfires used had propellers that had 4 blades. During the Battle of Britain (when this series takes place), Spitfires used propellers that had only 3 blades.

Forgiving the various historical inaccuracies (Spitfires instead of Hurricanes, aircraft colour schemes, etc) this is a very enjoyable piece of TV.
Though it may be hard to choose one truly great character in the programme, as there are so many, I really have to admire 'Moggy' Cattermole. Moggy gets the best lines, without a doubt, and he is undeniably the one we'd all want to be. Unbelievably charming, absolutely dashing and the definition of wit itself, Moggy steals the show on the ground. But it is the aerial content that I wanted to watch in this - the fight scenes are well done, and the way in which the whole thing is brought together (well explained in a very informative and thought provoking book, 'How They Made.....') is quite remarkable.
Throughly enjoyed over and over on video, too.
