Part of the Duxford Museum's collection is the American Air Museum in Britain. During the past year, they've started putting the Roger Freeman collection of photographs online. Apparently there's more to come.

As it's the holidays (and a weekend at that), maybe folks have some time to look at these.

... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

Hey that's some neat stuff there. I will have to sit down later and spend some more time going through that collection. The colour photos are always interesting. As a model builder I like to see how that stuff looked. Thanks for posting.
