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 air war.
