The Mosquito

The Wooden Wonder

"In 1940 I could at least fly as far as Glasgow in most of my aircraft, but not now! It makes me furious when I see the Mosquito. I turn green and yellow with envy."
-Hermann Göring, Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe, January, 1943

And the USA General:
"You have twin engine bomber, with a crew of two, who can carry 4,000 lbs to Berlin, higher and faster than my B17s, with four engines, a crew of 10 men with the same bomb load? Don't ever let the American public hear of this!"
