An exciting and informed account of the roles played from the Catapult Aircraft Merchant ships, with volunteer RAF Hurricane pilots who had to bale out, or ditch, when running out of fuel; to the Merchant Aircraft Carriers (converted from civilian ships, operating the swordfish armed with rocket projectiles or depth charges and manned by the Fleet Air Arm). All played such a vital part in defending the British sea lanes in World War 2.
