The First of the Few (1942) follows the journey of R.J. Mitchell, a brilliant aircraft designer who, by the late 1920s, has already made significant strides with his innovative mono-planes, which have garnered numerous accolades. However, a visit to Germany shortly after Hitler's rise to power opens his eyes to the impending threat. This realization compels Mitchell to embark on a new mission: to design a groundbreaking fighter plane that could potentially safeguard Britain's future. This plane would eventually be known as the Spitfire, a symbol of hope and resilience during the darkest hours of World War II.
