    VICKERS-ARMSTRONG SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE MKII
    RAF WWII COMBAT FIGHTER  PLANE
    PILOTED BY RAF ACE ADOLF G. “SAILOR” MALAN
    Adolph Gysbert Malan
    , DSO & Bar, DFC & Bar (24 March 1910 – 17 September 1963), better known as
    Sailor Malan
    , was a famed Royal Air Force World War II
    fighter pilot who led No. 74 Squadron
    during the height of the Battle of Britain. Malan was known for sending German bomber pilots home with dead crews as a warning to other Luftwaffe crews. Under his leadership No. 74 became one of the RAF's best units. Malan scored 27 kills, seven shared destroyed, three probably destroyed and 16 damaged.
    Malan survived the war to become involved in the anti-apartheid movement in his country. His younger brother, George F. Malan, was killed flying with No. 72 Squadron as a Spitfire pilot in Tunisia, in earlier 1943.
