Superb aircraft and superb model. The original aircraft were built of wood, used as a fighter, bomber, and Photo Recon during WW2.
Power two RR Merlins, and it was very fast!
The advantage o building in wood was that the parts could be build by skilled cabinet and piano makers in their own workshops and then assembly of the parts into an aircraft at the plane factory. Thereby avoiding the use of aluminium that was required for other aircraft, (Lancaster and Spitfire) and increasing the workforce to make parts without the need for training or building new factories for parts making.
Deisigned by DeHavilland Aircraft, who had built numerous wooden aircraft type in the past, mostly biplanes, the Mosquito served in Europe and the Far East during and fater WW2.
