The People’s Mosquito: Rebuilding Britain’s Wooden Wonder
Description
The de Havilland Mosquito was one of the most remarkable aircraft of World War II, yet today, not a single UK-built example remains airworthy. In this episode of Warbird Tube, we sit down with John Lilley, Chairman of The People’s Mosquito, to talk about the ambitious effort to change that—and return Britain’s legendary “Wooden Wonder” to the skies.
