"Tipping Point" by Mark Donoghue

A depiction of the first physical tipping of a V-1 flying bomb by Ken “Junior” Collier, RAAF, 91 Squadron RAF, in his Spitfire MkXIV on 23rd June 1944.
While another had used their wing to disrupt the airflow over the V-1's wing and send it out of control and away from London, Ken was the first actually make contact. Not knowing if it would explode, he knocked it nearly 90 degrees from the horizontal and sent it spiraling to the ground. While a rare method of disabling the V-1, it was effective, and is a shining example of the determination and courage of the young pilots who attempted to save civilian lives in London and elsewhere during WWII. Ken would become a V-1 ace with 7 kills, however he was later killed in action in an aerial engagement over the Ruhr later in the year.
