What Stanisław Skalski did on the first day of the September Campaign
Ciamek (Piglet) has incorporated his Polish PZL P.11c fighter into an interesting diorama that tells a fascinating story.
Stanisław Skalski was a Polish fighter ace during World War II, credited with 18-22 victories over Axis forces. Escaping to the UK after the Nazi/Soviet invasion of Poland, Skalski later even commanded an RAF squadron.

A similar story is presented in the film “Battle of Britain”, in which a Polish RAF pilot is shot down over the English countryside and has a hard time convincing the locals that he is on their side.
