Bill Innes first saw a Spitfire flying overhead when he was seven years old in 1940. Filled with hero worship for the daring pilots of the Battle of Britain, he dreamed of roaming the clouds in such a thrilling machine. As a student, he was selected to join the RAF air reserve squadron and to his delight, when the time came for him to do National Service, was accepted for pilot training in the RAF. Bill went on to become a pilot, and although he spent his working life flying different types of aircraft, he never managed to take to the skies in the iconic Spitfire - something he now intends to correct.
