Title: RAF Mosquito Christmas story
Post by: DaddyAce on December 24, 2017, 05:41:21 PM
I hope this is not old hat for folks, but heard this on the radio today and found it on youtube.   Bozon, you need to hear this one if you haven't.  Hope you enjoy it!

Heads up, it's 32 minutes.

Happy holidays all!

Thanks DaddyAce, never heard this one before.
Apparently mosquitoes are so awesome that they are able to fly through time and are the ride of choice for angels   :aok

Israeli airforce mosquitoes also flew their last sortie in 1957, I posted the story of the last one (which is also the first one) here:
