Much has been written about the Mosquito, but this book features
the young pilots and navigators who carried out daring operations
against targets in Europe. Their stories are as compelling today as
they were over sixty years ago at the height of World War II. The
Mosquito was for many the perfect synthesis of power and beauty and
arguably the most versatile of all Allied aircraft built during the
Second World War. Yet three times the Mosquito project was deleted
from Britain's future military plans, only to fight its way into
the air and turn in performance figures that left fellow aircraft
behind and its critics dumbfounded. Altogether, 7,781 examples of
the 'Wooden Wonder' would be built in no less than forty-three
versions. Bomber, day fighter, night fighter, pathfinder, attack
aircraft, trainer, reconnaissance aircraft - the Mosquito did it
all.
