Our Finest Hour at Royal Air Force Museum

Overview

The Battle of Britain Hall at RAF Museum London, is dedicated to the historical realities of the 1940's when the Royal Air Force stood alone against the might of Germany. This show, which lasts approximately 13 minutes, tells the story of this famous part of British history. 'Our Finest Hour' uses film footage, audio, special lighting effects and the real aircraft to give the visitor some of the atmosphere and feeling of the period, which brings to reality the story of the Battle.
