During the build up to the Allied invasion of Northern Europe, Battle of Britain hero Tom ' Ginger' Neil was assigned as an RAF liaison to an American fighter squadron. Acting as a British representative, Neil was tasked with negotiating & overcoming the countless culture clashes that existed between the two allies. From encountering unfamiliar planes & uncomfortable attitudes towards the British to meeting the King of Yugoslavia & General George Patton & falling in love, Neil's time with the Americans was anything but dull. As the Allies pushed east, Neil commandeered an abandoned Spitfire as his own personal aeroplane. Erasing any evidence of its provenance & stripping it down to bare metal, it became the RAF's only silver Spitfire. Love affair & culture clashes on hold, he took the silver Spitfire into battle alongside his US comrades until
- with the war's end
- he was forced to make a difficult decision. Faced with too many questions about the mysterious rogue fighter, he contemplated increasingly desperate measures to offload it, including bailing out mid-Channel. He eventually left the Spitfire at Worthy Down, never to be seen again. The Silver Spitfire is the first-h&, gripping story of Neil's heroic experience as an RAF fighter pilot & his reminiscences with his very own personal Spitfire.
