Aviation artist Nicolas Trudgian.  Aviation art print 'D-Day Armada' by Nicolas Trudgian depicting the crowded skies above Normandy on D-Day, 6th June 1944.

There was never a greater concentration of air power deployed in a n active theatre of war as over the English Channel in May and June 1944.  As D-Day approached, the USAAF's Ninth Air Force had assembled over 3500 aircraft and, dispatching up to 1000 aircraft a day, they were pounding enemy positions all the way from Pas de Calais to the coast of Normandy.  6 June 1944, arguably the most decisive single day in modern military history, saw the sky filled with waves of troop carrying aircraft towing gliders, dropping over 20,000 highly trained men in support of the massed sea-borne landings on the beaches below.  Grabbing all the airspace they could find, the combat wings of the Ninth Air Force were creating havoc among the German ground forces as they scrambled to get troops and armour to the battlefront.
