Ever wonder how a “busy RAF airfield” could vanish into sheep pasture the second the bombs hit? This film goes inside Britain’s invisible war—where fighters were dispersed into woodlands, airfields were repainted to look like farmland, and even shadows were engineered to mislead Luftwaffe cameras. From blast pens tucked into hedgerows to decoy “K” and “Q” sites that performed like stage sets, we break down the quiet geometry that saved planes, pilots, and bases.
You’ll see how photo interpreters hunted for edges and contrast—and how camoufleurs rewrote those clues with paint, plywood, and patience. We also connect the dots to today’s drone-and-satellite world, where deception still plays on the same instincts: what the eye expects vs. what’s really there.
