DE HAVILLAND DH 98 MOSQUITO B Mk.IV
Description: The Mosquito was the largest World War Two light bomber. Its performances and speed were only exceeded by the early German jet fighters.
Hermann Goring january 1943
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.
The British, who can afford aluminium better than we can, knock together a beautiful wooden aircraft that every piano factory over there is building, and they give it a speed which they have now increased yet again. What do you make of that?
Description: The "109" was the "Standard Fighter Aircraft" of the German Air Force during the whole of the War. Its strengths included good take-off performance and acceleration in the dive. The Bf 109E was the first large scale mass production model. A revision of aerodynamics in the nose area including the DB 601 engine resulted in the Bf 109F. From April 1941 onwards the Bf 109F formed the main part of mass production, whilst the F-4 first appeared in June of that year. The F-4/Trop had a Sand Filter in front of the air intake and other equipment for deployment in tropical and dusty areas such as North Africa and Southern Russia. One of the most successful 109 fighter pilots was Captain Joachim Marseille, who was mortally wounded in 1942.
Description: The Dornier Do 335 Pfeil ("Arrow") was a World War II heavy fighter built by the Dornier company. The two-seater trainer version was also called Ameisenbär ("aardvark"). The Pfeil’s performance was much better than other twin-engine designs due to its unique "push-pull" layout and the much lower drag of the in-line alignment of the two motors. The Luftwaffe was desperate to get the design into operational use, but delays in engine deliveries meant only a handful were delivered before the war ended.
