Video: Mosquito "The Plane that saved Britain HD"

The Plane that saved Britain HD

by batmcfluff

Channel 4 Paralympics presenter, former Royal Marines Commando and qualified pilot Arthur Williams presents this love letter to the World War II aeroplane he believes history has unjustly forgotten. While the names Spitfire, Lancaster and Hurricane have passed into legend, the De Havilland Mosquito languishes in relative obscurity. But for Arthur, the 'Wooden Wonder' is the plane that saved Britain. In this documentary, he meets the men who flew it, tells its extraordinary story and - 17 years after a fatal crash destroyed the last one to fly - travels to Virginia Beach in the USA to see if he can take to the skies in the world's only remaining flying Mosquito.

News – de Havilland Mosquito B.35 VR796 (CF-HML) restoration

Posted by Huw Hopkins on Dec 10, 2013

Under the expert care of Victoria Air Maintenance Ltd (VAM) in British Columbia, Canada, the world's next de Havilland Mosquito 'flyer' is nearing the final stages of its restoration. Huw Hopkins reports for GAR.

With the much-reported completion of Jerry Yagen's Mosquito KA114, a fighter-bomber variant of the famous de Havilland design, in September 2012, the early part of 2014 should see a second take to the skies, and the first bomber variant at that. Mosquito B.35 VR796 (CF-HML) is being completed for Bob Jens, owner of Spitfire MkXIVe TZ138, and will be based at Vancouver, Canada.
