Flight Lieutenant Jeff Northcott was a Canadian Spitfire pilot who served with distinction during World War II. A member of the Royal Canadian Air Force, he flew with No. 402 Squadron, engaging in combat missions over occupied Europe. Northcott participated in a range of operations, including bomber escort, ground attack, and fighter sweeps, often facing intense enemy opposition. Known for his skill and composure under pressure, he exemplified the courage and determination of Canada's wartime airmen. Flying the legendary Supermarine Spitfire, Northcott played a vital role in the Allied air campaign, earning recognition for his contributions to ultimate victory in Europe.
Designed by R.J.Michell to meet a British Air Ministry specification, the Supermarine Spitfire first flown on March 5th, 1936. With its combination of beautiful fighter design, the excellent performance of its Rolls-Royce Merlin powerplant and firepower provided by twin cannons and four machine guns, the Spitfire became an unrivaled symbol of victory. The Spitfire had 40 major variants and was built in greater numbers than any other British aircraft of the time. It flew operationally on every front between 1939 and 1945 and was engaged in every one of the Royal Air Force's major actions. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
