Thanks for always sharing such great stuff Lee!
A couple cool also important facts about Mosquito's;
When built, they were one of the fastest operational aircrafts in the world.
The main frames also wings were constructed mostly of wood!

The mosquito with the crew belongs to the military aviation museum. The hellcat and zero are Caf aircraft.

The mosquito with rockets was Rod Lewis’. Gone to a guy in California after his divorce. Damn.

Only 3 mosquitoes flying. The fourth either just flew or is just weeks away from doing so.
