EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and imposing presence of a De Havilland Mosquito B.XVI, serial number NF353, of 571 Squadron, Royal Air Force (RAF), as it taxis on the tarmac on 30 September 1944. The Mosquito, a versatile and iconic aircraft of the Second World War, was renowned for its agility, speed, and versatility, making it a formidable weapon in the skies over Europe. The Mosquito B.XVI was a fighter variant, armed with six 20mm Hispano cannon and two 20mm Hispano Hispano Mk.IV cannon in the wings. Its lightweight construction, primarily made of wood, allowed it to outmaneuver many of the German fighters it encountered in combat. The aircraft in this photograph wears the distinctive roundels and fin flash of 571 Squadron, which was part of the RAF's Second Tactical Air Force. The Mosquito played a crucial role in the RAF's tactical air support and fighter-bomber operations during the closing stages of the war in Europe. Its versatility also saw it used in a range of other roles, including as a photo reconnaissance platform and in maritime patrol duties. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the Mosquito's enduring legacy as one of the most successful and innovative aircraft designs to emerge from the Second World War. Taken by renowned aviation photographer Charles E. Brown, this image is a testament to the skill and bravery of the RAF pilots who flew these remarkable aircraft in combat. It is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal period in history and a tribute to the ingenuity and determination of those who designed, built, and flew the De Havilland Mosquito.
