Description

It is a cold, misty winter’s day early in 1943 and a pair of Mosquitoes B. Mk IV return from a low level precision bombing raid over Occupied Europe. As the early morning sun rises over the East Anglian countryside, the unmistakable sound of Merlin engines shatters the silence as these magnificent aircraft emerge from the mist, skimming across the landscape whilst heading back to their Norfolk base.

With a unique airframe constructed of wood, the Mosquito was light but exceptionally strong and had a reputation with its crews of being able to get them home even when heavily damaged. Few other aircraft were so highly regarded by the crew that flew them and enthusiasts alike, making the Mosquito one of the greatest aircraft of WWII.

Gerald has captured the scene perfectly as a pair of Mosquitos return from a low-level precision bombing raid over occupied Europe. It is a cold, misty winters day and as the sun rises over the countryside, the unmistakable sound of Merlin Engines shatter the silence as these magnificent aircraft head back to their base.
