Crucial to every squadron in the RAF were the unsung heroes of World War Two - the ground crew. Without the vital support of these dedicated men who refuelled the aircraft, rearmed them, maintained them and kept them flying, the pilots and aircrew would, quite simply, never have got into the air. Robert Taylor's drawing Vital Support shows ground crew bombing up a De Havilland Mosquito of RAF Bomber Command.
Joining artist Robert Taylor, every print has been signed by ELEVEN De Havilland Mosquito pilots and crew as their personal tribute to the men who supported them so faithfully:

Flight Lieutenant RAY HARRINGTON 
Wing Commander BRANSE BURBRIDGE DSO* DFC* 
Wing Commander ERIC BARWELL 
Flight Lieutenant KEN TEMPEST, 
Warrant Officer BERTWINWOOD 
Squadron Leader TOMMYBROOM DFC 
Flight Lieutenant AUBREY 'HILLI' HILLIARD 
Flight Lieutenant GEOFFREY PERKS, 
Flying Officer MAURICE WEBB DFM 
Flying Officer JACK YOUENS 
Extra Signature- Flt Lt Terry Clark DFM
