In an Aviation Show first, we teamed up with Paul Woodadge of  @WW2TV  to do a multi Live Stream! This is the audio from our discussion with Dr Victoria Taylor. Victoria joins us to discuss her new book, Eagle Days: Life and Death for the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain. Eagles Days looks at the long summer of 1940 from the other side of the channel and offers some surprising insights into one of the most discussed battles of WW2.

Dr Victoria Taylor, BA (Hons), MRes, AFHEA is an award-winning aviation historian, broadcaster and writer who completed her PhD thesis on the Luftwaffe and National Socialism in the Third Reich at the University of Hull and Sheffield Hallam University. Her main historical focus is on British and German aviation during the interwar period and the Second World War. In recognition of her PhD research, she was awarded the 2020 Royal Air Force Museum Doctoral Academic Prize in 2021.
