Episodes
The model squadron re-enact the early events of the Battle of Britain, from 4 July 1940, with model Hurricanes, Stukas and Messerschmitts that can shoot each other down
On 15 August 1940, in what became known as Black Thursday, the Luftwaffe tried to break the RAF with low-level attacks on their planes on the ground. The skills of the modellers are put to the test as they try to recreate a bombing raid from that day. In history the Luftwaffe bombed the wrong airfield; what will the model Luftwaffe do? Under the command of real life RAF Tornado technician Mike Mathias, the model RAF squadron has to train some new pilots to fly Spitfires and Hurricanes, including Polish drone pilot Magdalena.
The model aircraft enthusiasts recreate the climax of the Battle of Britain, when the RAF threw everything at the massed squadrons of Luftwaffe that were trying to attack London
