The de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito was a British twin-engine shoulder-winged multi-role combat aircraft, introduced during the Second World War. It was one of few operational front-line aircraft of the era whose frame was constructed almost entirely of wood. Nicknamed The Wooden Wonder, it was affectionately as the "Mossie" to its crews. The total number of DH98 Mosquito aircraft built was 7,781, the type serving with the main Allied air forces, including both the United States and Russia.

When Mosquito production began in 1941 it was the fastest propeller driven operational aircraft in the world. The first variant was an unarmed, high-speed, high-altitude photo-reconnaissance aircraft. Originally conceived as an unarmed fast bomber, the Mosquito's use evolved during the war into many roles including low to medium-altitude daytime tactical bomber, high-altitude night bomber, pathfinder, day or night fighter, fighter-bomber, intruder, and maritime strike aircraft. It was also used by the British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) as a fast transport to carry small high-value cargoes to, and from, neutral countries, through enemy-controlled airspace. The crew of two, pilot and navigator, sat side by side, but a single passenger could ride in the aircraft's bomb bay when necessary.

The Mosquito FB Mk. VI was often flown in special raids, such as Operation Jericho, an attack on Amiens Prison in early 1944, and precision attacks against military intelligence, security and police facilities (such as Gestapo headquarters). On the 10th anniversary of the Nazi' seizure of power in 1943, a morning Mosquito attack knocked out the main Berlin broadcasting station while Hermann Goering was speaking, putting his speech off the air. Goering later said: "It makes me furious when I see the Mosquito. I turn green and yellow with envy. There is nothing the British do not have. They have the geniuses and we have the nincompoops."

The Mosquito flew with the RCAF and other air forces in the European, Mediterranean and Italian theatres. After the end of the Second World War Spartan Air Services flew 10 ex-RAF Mosquitoes, mostly B.35's plus one of only six PR.35's built, for high-altitude photographic survey work in Canada. There are approximately 30 non-flying Mosquitos around the world with five airworthy examples, four in the United States, and one in Canada. Harold Skaarup web page and Wikipedia

Involved in a landing accident during production flight test at Downsview, likely in the fall of 1943. KB153 ground-looped through the mud and ploughed through a chain-link fence. Joe Holliday, photographer for DHC, captioned his photo of the incident in his book Mosquito!: "Because a worker removed a cotter pin from a joint pin of a brake connecting rod after final inspection, and forgot to replace it, this Mosquito went out of control in an emergency landing...".

After being repaired, made the North Atlantic ferry flight along with KB345 and KB347 via Reykjavik to Prestwick 10-11 Jul 1944. To 13MU at Henlow for modifications 18 Jul 1944. Assigned to 627 Sqn 11 Aug. 1944. Written off in Cat. "E" flying accident 28 Nov 1944.

Made the North Atlantic ferry flight via Reykjavik to Prestwick on 25 Aug 1943. First Canadian Mosquito delivered to the RAF, to 139 Pathfinder Sqn on 11 Nov 1943. Flown by Flight Lieutenant G.W. Salter, it was the first Canadian Mosquito to bomb Berlin on 2 Dec 1943. On 11 May 1944, dropped TI markers on Ludwigshafen. On return to base at Upwood, UK, a TI flare that had hung up in the bomb bay started a fire. Navigator Flying Officer Alan J.A. Woodland was able to bale out but Pilot Flying Officer Geoffrey Lewis RAFVR was killed when the aircraft crashed at Chittering. Struck off as Cat. "E" on 11 May 1944.

The Canadian Aviation Museum in Windsor, ON is building a replica of KB161 utilizing engines and some other parts recovered from ex-Spartan Air Services Mosquito B.Mk. 35 CF-HMR (ex. TA661) that crashed at Pelly Lake, NWT in 1956.

On the night of August 24th 1944, Flight Lieutenant Stuart Douglas Webb of 608 Squadron, 8th group Pathfinder and Light Night Striking Force RAF Downham Market took off at 21:35hrs detailed to attack Cologne. While on a bombing run over the target his Mosquito B-XX KB242 was coned in by searchlights and as the bombs were released it was hit by very heavy flak. Shortly after, on the return home, a Focke Wulf FW 190 night fighter flown by Hauptmann, Friedrich-Karl "Nasen' Muller of Nachtjagdgruppe 1./NJGr.10 made four continued attacks on his aircraft over Eindhoven, actually claiming a kill. On the last attack the Mosquito was thrown into a steep spiral dive from 25,000 feet. Doug regained control at about 9,000 feet. The elevator trimming tabs were shot away, the hydraulic lines severed and the A.S.I. unserviceable. He then set course for home and despite great difficulty he was able to keep the stricken aircraft in stable flight. As the emergency hydraulic system was by now also unserviceable he landed with the undercarriage retracted at Woodbridge airfield in Suffolk at 01:10hrs. The rear of the fuselage was so badly damaged by cannon fire that the entire tail section of the aircraft fell off completely on touching down. He received a letter of commendation for his actions.

On 19 September, an order came through from Bomber Command for No. 5 Group to prepare for an attack on Bremen. Planes from No. 5 Group would be responsible for all aspects of the operation, including target illumination and marking and control of the raid. Cochrane, the AOC, would be responsible for tactics and route planning. As the day progressed, the weather forecast changed, and at 16:45 an order came through to change to the reserve targets at Rheydt and Moenchen-Gladbach.

At the flight planning conference it was decided that three areas would be attacked simultaneously; they were designated as red, green and yellow. The red area was Rheydt town centre, where the attack would be fully controlled by a master bomber who would monitor the marking and coordinate the main force bombing. The tactics of dispersed marking were untried and unrehearsed, and therefore would require expertise from the controller and markers.

The announcement that Wing Commander Guy Gibson VC would be the controller was met with general incredulity. It was assumed it would be regular controller from No. 54 Base Flight or a qualified one from No. 627 Squadron. Some suspicion started to circulate that the proposed complexity may have come from Gibson and his lack of experience in marking techniques.

As Gibson did not have a regular navigator, one had to be found to fly with him. The first choice (Charles Clark DFC) was ill, so Squadron Leader Jim Warwick was selected. He was the Station Navigation Officer and therefore screened from operations. There was also no serviceable Mosquito available at Coningsby for Gibson to use, so it was decided to use the reserve aircraft of No. 627 Squadron, located at RAF Woodhall Spa. Gibson and Warwick were driven over. When they arrived about 18:30, for unknown reasons, Gibson rejected the reserve aircraft KB213 and insisted on using the Mosquito B.XX KB267 instead. The crew who were expecting to fly in KB267 were unhappy with the change. As the two crews were performing different functions, the bomb loads had to be swapped. They took off at 19:51.

When they arrived at the target, the marking of the red area went badly wrong owing to a series of mishaps. The three markers could not identify the marking point and one aircraft had engine problems. Gibson attempted to mark it himself but his Target Indicators (TIs) did not release. As the illumination from the flares was fading, he called for more flares and warned the red section of the main force not to bomb. He then commanded them to stand by, so they started to turn away from the target. This was potentially dangerous and exposed them to further risk from flak and night fighters. Some started to bomb the green area, either out of confusion or nervousness. He then authorised the remaining aircraft to bomb the green area. The red area was eventually marked, but it was too late to direct any of the main force's aircraft to attack it. The raid concluded at 21:58. The time of Gibson's departure from the target is unknown. It is possible that he loitered in a wide, high orbit to assess the outcome and left around 22:00. One crew from No. 61 Squadron claimed they heard him say he had a damaged engine.

Gibson's aircraft crashed at Steenbergen in the Netherlands at around 22:30 and lit up in flames. Witnesses heard an aircraft flying low, saw that its cockpit was illuminated and then it crashed.At first, Gibson's failure to return to Woodhall Spa was not considered out of the ordinary, as it was assumed he had landed at Coningsby. Likewise at Coningsby there was no immediate concern as there was fog and it was assumed he would have landed elsewhere. However, it soon became apparent he had not returned. The rumour spread rapidly around No. 5 Group that he was missing. He was not posted officially as missing until 29 November,although Prime Minister Winston Churchill was informed on 26 September: "The Air Ministry have told us that Wing Commander Gibson, VC is reported missing from a recent raid in which he flew a Mosquito to Munchen Gladbach".

Bombing Monchengladbach Germany 1944-09-19 to 1944-09-19

627 (I) Sqn (RAF) RAF Woodhill Spa

627 Squadron RAF (At first sight), RAF Woodhill Spa. 5 Group Wing Commander G P Gibson VC (RAF), who had previously led Lancaster aircraft from 617 Squadron in Operation Chastise, the Dambuster raid on the Sorpe, Mohne and Eder dams,1944-05-16/17 was now considered non-operational but wished to continue flying. With this in mind he assumed the role of Master Bomber for a Mosquito raid against targets in Monchengladbach/Rheydt, Germany, even though he had little experience with either target-marking or flying Mosquito aircraft. The officer Gibson intended to fly with as Navigator was ill and unavailable so he instead selected Squadron Leader J B Warwick DFC to fill this position. Warwick, as Station Navigation Officer, was also considered non-operational. Arriving at RAF Woodhill Spa, Gibson was offered the Squadron reserve aircraft, Mosquito KB 213 for the operation. For whatever reason, Gibson rejected KB 213 and demanded a different aircraft, choosing Canadian-built Mosquito BXX aircraft KB 267 AZ-E also displacing the crew originally assigned to KB 267 and proceeded with the mission. The target marking at Rheydt was not very successful for a number of reasons and Mosquito KB 267 eventually turned for home. Flying low over the Netherlands the aircraft abruptly rolled and flew into the ground, crashing and burning at Steenbergen, Noord Brabant, Netherlands with the loss of both Gibson and Warwick

Wing Commander G P Gibson VC, DSO and Bar, DFC and Bar (RAF) pilot and Squadron Leader J B Warwick DFC (RAFVR) were both killed in action

The cause of loss of the aircraft and crew was not absolutely determined. The aircraft was observed flying at low level when the engines cut out and it suddenly dived into the ground, which would suggest a possible fuel or engine issue. The aircraft loss does not appear on the 627 Squadron Operations Record Book because the aircraft was taken away from 627. The crash card for KB 267 indicates that it was flown by Gibson and Warwick and was missing on the date of the operation to Monchengladbach.

KB 315

Packard Merlin 31

To USAAF as the third F-8. RAF serial appears to never have been worn, the US serial being applied at the factory. 43-34926 was sent to Peterson Field in Colorado Springs, Colorado for installation of photo reconnaissance equipment.The F-8s carried a single camera port on the centre-line of the aft fuselage, a port in forward end of the the left hand bomb bay door and were also capable of carrying a forward oblique mount in the nose compartment, shooting through the bomb aimer's centre panel. 43-34926 then went to Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio for installation of American radio equipment and further testing. From Wright Field, it appears that that the aircraft was flown back to the de Havilland plant at Downsview, possibly for final updates or correction of some fault.

It was at Downsview that Maj. James F. Setchell was assigned as the pilot of F-8 serial number 43-34926 which was named "The Spook." His navigator was Capt. Jerome C. Alexander. The name was painted on both sides of the nose in flamboyant yellow and black letters while still at Downsview. The name "The Spook" was allegedly for the pilot's new son as he considered him one of the scariest-looking babies he had ever seen.

"The Spook" was to be assigned to the 3rd Photographic Group (Reconnaissance), part of the 12th Air Force, based in North Africa. According to the log book kept by Setchell, the route flown took them from Downsview to La Marsa, Tunisia (near Tunis) by way of Goose Bay, Labrador; Bluie West One, Greenland; Meeks Field, Iceland; Prestwick, Scotland: St. Mawgan, Cornwall; and Casablanca. Morocco. The aircraft arrived at La Marsa on 18 Oct 1943. It then flew to Algiers 10 Nov 1943 with Lt. Col. Elliott Roosevelt, son of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and commander of the 3rd Photographic Group (Reconnaissance) in North Africa. Repositioned to San Severo, Italy 7 Dec 1943. On 15 and 16 Jan 1944 "the Spook" flew through intense flak yet returned with valuable photographic reconnaissance, earning Setchell the DFC. Flown by another pilot the aircraft was written off after a crash-landing at Pomigliano, Italy on August 19, 1944.KB315 was the only Canadian-built B.Mk. VII to see combat service with the USAAF.

Packard Merlin 225

Built in Jul 1944. Delivered directly into stored reserve with Eastern Air Command at Dartmouth NS 20 Jul 1944. Prototyped an engine breather system 12 Sep 1945. To APDAL status with 6 REMU at Saguenay QC 1 May 1946, then stored reserve at Mont Joli QC 13 May 1946 but returned to Dartmouth by 9 Aug 1946. To APDAL status at Dartmouth by 24 Sep 1947. To War Assets Corp. 9 June 1948 for disposal with a total of 45 airframe hours.

Sold to Don McVicar/Worldwide Aviation Agencies for $1500 Cdn. along with KA984. Ferried to Montreal/Dorval by Bill McLaren 2 July 1948 still with military markings. McVicar sold KA984 and used the proceeds to convert KB377 to fly in the 1948 Bendix Trophy cross-country air race. Extra fuel tanks were added in and behind the bomb bay as well as the nose and race #41 was applied. On 1 Sep 1948 McVicar began the ferry flight from Dorval to the Bendix race start at Long Beach CA. Engine problems on route necessitated a stop in Buffalo NY for repairs, then again in Wichita KS. On departure from Wichita the starboard engine had to be feathered due to a connecting rod failure and the a/c returned to Wichita. McVicar's Bendix attempt for 1948 was over; the aircraft was left at Wichita until it was sold to Don Bussart 30 Aug 1949.

Bussart had the a/c repaired at Wichita and installed two Packard Merlin V-1650-7 engines from P-51's, as well as external under-wing fuel tanks. The a/c was repainted dark blue and given the race #81 and the name "Wooden Wonder" for participation in the 1949 Bendix race. Bussart ferried the a/c to the race start at Rosamond Dry Lake CA without issues, stopping to refuel at St. Louis MO and Las Vegas NV. On 2 Sep 1949, Wooden Wonder reached Cleveland, finishing 4th in the Bendix B feature race, with a failed oxygen system and one engine feathered. Bussart also planned to make an around-the-world flight in Dec 1949. He went to China to complete a contract with China National Airlines, but for unknown reasons was never able to return to the US. By 4 Aug 1951, Bussart's wife had sold the a/c to Mark Hurd Mapping Co.

The a/c was ferried to Southern Airways in Birmingham AL to remove all racing modifications and convert it for photo survey work, including refitting of the original bomb bay doors. Further work was done in Goleta CA. On 13 Sep 1952, while parked at Las Vegas-McCarran Field NV, the compressed air cylinder for the brakes exploded, blowing a 3-foot hole in the fuselage aft of the starboard wing. The airframe was considered a write-off and was abandoned, and scrapped c. 1957.

Some sources report this as one of the last 6 Mosquitos that remained in storage at Crumlin in 1950 after all others were sold to Nationalist China 1947-48. However this does not agree with the RCAF record card. To instructional A516 at Camp Borden ON. Sold to Babb Company (Canada) of Dorval, Quebec. May have been resold to either Israel or the Dominican Republic.

   1944-December-10 Accident Crash in sea in bad weather 12m S of Summerside PEI

Ferry Flight 1944-12-10 to 1944-12-10

45 (T) Group (RAF) Dorval, Quebec

45 Group RAF Transport Command, Dorval Quebec. Canadian-built Mosquito aircraft KB 536 took off from RCAF Station Summerside, PEI for a ferry flight to the UK under conditions of low visibility. The aircraft was heard from shortly after take off and then no further contact before it crashed into Bedeque Bay, PEI. Subsequent searches located wreckage of the aircraft in shallow water about 12 miles south of Summerside, and a quarter of a mile off shore from Sea Cow Head

Pilot Sub/Lt S Breck (RNAF) and Wireless Operator/Navigator FE Sorensen (RAAF) were missing, presumed killed in this flying accident

The missing have no known grave and both are commemorated on the Ottawa Memorial

Oil cooler problems on Canadian-built Mosquitos being flown in colder weather resulting in several crashes of these aircraft while being ferried. This became a serious issue for 45 Group, such that after the loss of KB 536, Mosquitos were ferried via the Southern Route, across the Atlantic from Nata, Brazil to Dakar, Senegal and then North to Britain until it was determined how to deal with cold weather operations

Fatal crash on 4th production flight test in Dec 1944. Crew of two civilians was killed. One source gives the date as 23 Dec 1944. Crash was due to jammed aileron, caused by a wooden plug in the aileron nose tube that worked loose and fouled the hinges. Immediate inspections were ordered of all Mosquitos in Canada. Nine were found with missing screws in the aileron plug and another twenty where the plug was loose.
