Popular Post munzieb Posted July 15, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 I thought it was time to try another plane. The British Mosquito since it was made mostly out of wood. Interesting tidbit. General Hap Arnold was in England looking at production of the Mosquito days prior to Pearl Harbor and was very interested and recommended it to the Army Air Corp. The P-38 was already in production and decided it could do the job. The Mosquito became a very successful high speed medium bomber and night fighter because it was hard to detect by radar. It helped it also had 2 Merlin engines. I cut this plaque on 1/4 BBPW (ran out of 1/8" stock) 3/16 backer, shellac and lacquer finish. Original print was on 8.5 x 11 but took it to copy store for a slight enlargement. A-1 paper may be large enough. The greyed out areas are for bridges that can be painted later.
