Who was Britain's famous RAF pilot?

Answer 1

There were several famous WW2 Briitish fighter pilots. One of the most famous was Douglas Bader. He was a fighter pilot in the 1930, when he crashed in a "Bulldog", resulting in the loss of both legs; one below the knee and one above.

When Britain entered WW2, Bader petitioned to be allowed to re-enter the military and fly airplanes. He was granted permission and he became an ace in the Battle of Britain. Bader proposed using massed flights of figthers to defend against the German bombers. I believe he lead some of these flights into battle.

He was shot down and captured by the Germans. The British flew an aircraft over German lines to drop him a replacement pair of legs. Bader attempted escape from a 2nd story hospital ward, so the Germans confiscated his legs.
