However, before the Germans could attempt an amphibious invasion across the English Channel, the Luftwaffe had to neutralise the threat posed by the Royal Air Force and secure mastery of the skies. For the first time, they were at a disadvantage, with the natural barrier of the English Channel meaning that fuel management was critical and any mechanical or combat damage issues would result in capture and internment for German crews.The scene was set for an aerial struggle unlike anything the world had seen before: a duel amongst the clouds that could dictate the outcome of the Second World War. Facing overwhelming odds, the pilots of Fighter Command were from Britain and Commonwealth nations, but also from several other countries from around the globe, each one determined to prevent the Luftwaffe from ruling the skies over Britain. Could Churchills Few prevail against the might of the Luftwaffes massed formations of Messerschmitts and Heinkels?
