RAF at 90

The RAF sprang to life during the First World War. It took off into a dangerous adulthood during the Battle of Britain and the bombing of Germany, and achieved maturity as a delivery platform for the hydrogen bomb. Now, at the lively old age of 90, the RAF fights the Taliban in the War on Terror. Seen through the eyes of those who fought, and are about to fight, at the sharp end of the RAF's toughest battles, this film reveals the joys flying can bring as well as the destructive realities of aerial warfare and explores the 90 year history of Britain's ever-changing air force.
