·So, I plan to feature three WW2 RAF aircraft with my Omega 6B/159 (1942) and a 6B/221 (1943) Air Ministry Smiths / Dennison Stopwatch.
First off is the Mosquito - the wooden wonder. This is a night fighter variant. The Mossie was a multirole aircraft which some still consider is one of the best planes of WW2. The roar of twin Merlins on such a light manoeuvrable aircraft - fantastic.
Pictures are from a Darren Harbar photography day I joined at East Kirkby Museum at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre. All the superb re-enactors are volunteers and we were hosted by Andrew Panton and his amazing team at the museum.

Well, that is my mission complete with three iconic aircraft covered…. Although there might now be a fourth and if anyone might be interested in a very good value UK based warbird flight this year drop me a PM.
