Spitfire
• The Supermarine Spitfire was a development of a famous Schneider trophy racing aircraft designed by R.J. Mitchell.
• It was vital to the defence of the United Kingdom, and ultimately victory, in the Second World War.
• It is a tribute to R.J. Mitchell’s design, that over 22,000 Spitfires were produced in 36 separate Marks.
• Distinctive because of the elliptical shaped wing and the roar from the powerful piston engine.

Hurricane• The Hawker Hurricane stands alongside the Spitfire
in the halls of fame.• In fact, the Hurricane predates the Spitfire by some
two years, being designed in 1934, by Sydney Camm who later designed the Hunter and Harrier aircraft.
• The Hurricane was the first monoplane fighter in RAF service and also the first to exceed 260 kts (482 km/h) in level flight.
• Although perhaps not quite as well known as the Spitfire, it contributed more to the Battle of Britain, by destroying a greater number of enemy aircraft.
• This was due partly to its better turning performance, and partly to its the more rugged and more damage-tolerant construction.

Dakota• One of the most famous American-built transport
aircraft ever produced.• Nearly 13,000 where made by the Douglas
Corporation since the first aircraft flew in 1935. Several hundreds are still flying and working today.
• Renowned for its rugged construction, Dakotas have transported passengers and freight around the world.
• The fin and rudder appear large and the tail wheel juts out below the fin. On the ground the nose of this tail dragger sits high in the air, supported on the balloon tyres of the retractable main under- carriage. Another good feature is the rectangular window shape.
