Agreed also,

In WB it would have been a superb addition except for the "glass elevator" damage bug which would fall off in touch shots at very long range, and in the poor cockpit view.

A case was made that it should have the external bomber view enabled to compensate but that was never done.  The cockpit view is certainly nowhere close to the picture that was posted!

If it wasn't for those issues, it would be quite popular in WB.  Assuming these mistakes aren't repeated, it would be a dream to have in AH.

RR299 is a T Mk3 produced at Leavesdon between oct 44 and july 45 (most likely early 45)

Its a dual control trainer.

the  HTE id is fictitiuos.

This plane first flew with NO 51 OTU (operational training unit) out of Cranfield then by 114 squadron in Aden.

It was the last Mossie to fly for the RAF in 63, after which it passed to civilian hands.

Tilt,
I wasn't actually saying that the image was a Mosquito FB VI.  That was simply the nicest image I could find of a Mosquito to jazz up my request.

I would probably spend most of my time in it.. Really suites my hit and run style...
Its ugly but you cant tell unless you use external views..(of which it would have none right?)
