Found a nice website that lists all the pilots of the RAF during the BoB by nationality.  Has short descriptions of most pilots too.

Very cool indeed.  Thanks.

By the way...that BOB exhibit at Hendon was absolutely amazing.  Really liked the film they did, with the psydo-3D stuff and the way they did the lights etc.

Next time I'm there I will take the time to say hi.
