I've got a rough idea for some of the British planes
Spit V - prototype flight Feb 41, in service March 41
Spit IX - prototype flight April 42, in service June 42
Tempest - prototype flight June 43, in service April 44

"And one of the finest aircraft I ever flew was the Macchi C.205. Oh, beautiful. And here you had the perfect combination of italian styling and german engineering .... it really was a delight to fly ... and we did tests on it and were most impressed." - Captain Eric Brown
