Battle of Britain Aircraft Collection at RAF Museum London - The Royal Air Force Museum's Battle of Britain Hall tells the story of the world's first decisive air battle - when the Royal Air Force stood alone against the might of the German Luftwaffe during World War Two. Recently refurbished to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, this aircraft collection contains the most comprehensive selection of aircraft from both sides that fought in the Battle of Britain. Alongside the very planes that fought for supremacy over the Channel, interactive displays give you an insight into the minds and actions of those who experienced the Battle at first hand. After war broke out in 1939, large numbers of Allied troops in France prepared for the German onslaught. When it came in May 1940, German tactics surprised and overwhelmed Allied air and ground forces, who retreated from Dunkirk. This left Britain isolated from Europe - the enemy just 20 miles away across the English Channel. With around four times more aircraft than RAF Fighter Command, Germany got ready to invade England. Permanent.
