A Stunning piece commemorating an exceptional Fighter Ace
VICTORY OVER DUNKIRK
By Robert Taylor
Legendary Fighter Ace, Bob Stanford-Tuck destroys his third enemy of the day – an Me110 – over Dunkirk, on 23 May 1940.High over the French port of Dunkirk, Tuck’s 92 Squadron Spitfire is seen in vertical banking turn with the Me110 streaming smoke way below.
Regarded by many to have been one of the most naturally talented fighter pilots, Bob Stanford-Tuck demonstrated exceptional skill as soon as he started flying. He had complete mastery of his machine, be it Spitfire or Hurricane, and an uncanny skill in the art of tactics and deflection shooting in the heat of battle.
Fearless and effective in battle, no matter what the odds, Stanford-Tuck achieved a significant 29 aerial victories as early as 1942 when he was shot down by ground fire over Northern France.
Bob’s own words when he saw Robert's painting were: ”The painting is so realistic. That is just how I remember the action.”
