With the Battle of Britain Combat Archive Series reaching its conclusion with Volume 20, it seemed reasonable that such a series should have some form of Appendices. The more we thought about it, the clearer the idea took shape. Each Appendix will feature a mainly statistical record of various elements of the Battle supported by insightful text, original documents and the latest research, as in the main series. This first Appendix features RAF Fighter Squadrons in the Battle of Britain in a page by page easy reference guide. Each squadron page features the airfields operated from, the top 10 scoring pilots, total claims and total losses. There are also a couple of bar charts covering the claims and losses on each day of the Battle, for that squadron. It’s a unique guide and nicely complements the main series of books.
The statistical information has been gathered from a number of sources with the main core being supplied by Battle of Britain analyst Peter Cook. Peter has spent over 20 years developing a stunning Battle of Britain database which is second to none in documenting the details of the Battle.
See the sample pages for more details of this essential book for any Battle of Britain historian or enthusiast.

- Over 300 original wartime photos
- Top ten claiming pilots in each squadron
- Totals of Claims and Losses for each squadron
- List of airfields and dates of transfer for each squadron
- A4 format and printed full colour throughout
- 64 Pages
About the Author
Simon W Parry is now one of Britain’s leading aviation historians, but his roots are in Surrey where he began his research into the battles and aircraft crashes in the county 30 years ago, a time it was possible to interview many witnesses to the events. His interest in the air war lead him to become a profession researcher at the National Archives, undertaking assignments for those not able to conduct their own investigations. Since the publication of his first book in 1987 he has focussed his attentions on the editing and production of over 40 aviation books for publishers. He is also one of Europe’s most experienced aviation archaeologists, contributing to several TV shows.
