Show your love for the Spitfire with these low top trainers based on the RAF's most successful pilot during The Battle of Britain.

Eric “Sawn Off Lockie" Lock of RAF 611 Squadron. SO, DFC and Bar (April 19th, 1919 – August 3rd, 1941) completed his flight training in 1940 and was initially posted to No. 41 Squadron RAF in time for the Battle of Britain. Lock became the RAF's most successful Allied pilot during the battle, shooting down 21 German aircraft and sharing in the destruction of one.  Less than six months after becoming one of the most famous RAF pilots in the country, whilst posted with 611 squadron he crash-landed in the English Channel after his Spitfire was damaged by ground-fire. Lock was posted missing in action and was never seen again. He was 22 years old.  Lock earned the nickname "Sawn Off Lockie", because of his extremely short stature.”
