Well, technically, you are correct. It entered service in December 1940 as the fastest prop aircraft in the world at the time. Unsure it held that record for tho.. Incredible aircraft, recon at 30,000 feet down to bombing raids as low as 30 feet. Incredible payload of 4,000lbs. Not bad for an aircraft made entirely of wood.. Frightened the living shit out of the Germans... That gets my vote (0;

Remember reading that to kill a Mosquito recon aircraft counted as two kill's for the Luftwaffe they we're so difficult to catch.

Incredible aircraft. The most versatile aircraft of the second world war.

@tc030564 Yes you are correct from 1941 the mosqueto (415 mph) was the fastest aircraft untill the P51-D mustang (437 mph) arrived in the spring of 1944,The German Messerschmitt - 262 (559 mph) also came into service in 1944 making it the fastest aircraft of the war (i dont know about the commet because there is no record of it's top speed) i should point out there are web site's that talk about the spitfire XI reaching (422 mph) but i'm not sure what date it was introduced.i hope this helps...

At Elvington Yorkshire Air Museum near York there is a Mosquito that was used in one of the crash sequences, it lived for years abandoned and unloved on the film back lot until a bloke bought it, restored in his back yard and loaned it to the air museum. Get on down it's a fantastic day out and I mean a day. It's a whole wartime RAF station with a complete Halifax some Buccaneer, an ME 109 and a Victor amongst other things

According to Rons interview in FlyPast Sept `95 he used the title of the film 663 to come up with this tune-six short beats followed by three long beats,da da da da da da daa daa daa and so on.
