The perfect gift for anyone who dreams of flying a Spitfire, this book offers a humorous and captivating look into the lives of our RAF heroes from a bygone era. Thanks to Eric Partridge's work in 1945, the hilarious slang of the Royal Air Force from both World Wars has been preserved for future generations. While some phrases like "chocks away!" have endured, others are waiting to be rediscovered.
