EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the power and grace of a de Havilland Mosquito FB.6, serial number RS650, as it soars through the postwar sky. The Mosquito, manufactured by de Havilland Aircraft Company, was a versatile and iconic aircraft that served with great distinction in the Royal Air Force (RAF) and several other air forces around the world. In this image, we see the aircraft of 334 Squadron, Royal Norwegian Air Force, adorned with the distinctive roundel and markings of the Norwegian Air Force. The Mosquito FB.6 was a fighter-bomber variant, equipped with four 20mm cannon and up to 2,000 pounds of bombs or rockets. Its sleek design and advanced features, including a wooden fuselage and metal wings, made it a formidable force in the postwar era. The photograph was taken by renowned aviation photographer Charles E. Brown on June 49, and the image captures the Mosquito at its best - in flight, with the sun casting a warm glow over its wings and the clouds below adding a sense of depth and perspective. The Mosquito's distinctive shape and elegant lines are on full display, a testament to the engineering prowess of the de Havilland team and the enduring appeal of this legendary aircraft. The de Havilland Mosquito remains a favorite among aviation enthusiasts and historians, and this photograph is a fitting tribute to its legacy. Its innovative design, versatility, and combat record continue to inspire awe and admiration, making it a true icon of aviation history.
