Truly an example of engineering ingenuity born out of the
desperation of war, the legendary 'all-wooden' Mosquito was perhaps
the best twin-engined fighter-bomber of its size to see action in
World War II (1939-1945). The first bomber variant to enter service
was the B Mk IV, initial examples of which were issued to No 2
Group's No 105 Sqn at Swanton Morley, in Norfolk, in November 1941.
Considerably faster than the unit's previous Blenheim Mk IVs,
powered by inline rather than radial engines, and made of wood
instead of metal alloy, the Mosquito initially proved a challenging
mount for both air and groundcrew alike.
