RAAF Mosquito
« on: Today at 02:37:38 AM »
Thank you to Lyric1 for finding the info for this skin.

This Mosquito PR 40 was part of 87 Flight of the RAAF flying photo recon missions from Coomalie airfield in Northern Australia in May 1945. In 1947 it survived a wheels up landing largely intact. As with all SEAC based Mosquitos at this time it was painted in silver lacquer to reduce heat damage to its wooden structure.

That's sharp.  Nice job.

You might want to blend the seam on the rear fuselage where the top and the side meet by a couple percent but that's just me being nitpicky. 

Very pretty airplane.
