Description
Crucial to every squadron in the RAF were the unsung heroes – the ground crew. Without the vital support of these dedicated men who refueled the aircraft, rearmed them, maintained them and kept them flying, the pilots and aircrew would, quite simply, never have got into the air.
THE SIGNATURES
It’s fitting that Robert’s superb drawing has been autographed by TEN Mosquito pilots and air crew as a personal tribute to the men who supported them so faithfully:
Flight Lieutenant RAY HARRINGTON
Wing Commander BRANSE BURBRIDGE DSO* DFC*
Wing Commander ERIC BARWELL DFC*
Flight Lieutenant KEN TEMPEST
Warrant Officer A.E. “BERT” WINWOOD
Squadron Leader TJ “TOMMY” BROOM DFC
Flight Lieutenant AUBREY “HILLI” HILLIARD
Flight Lieutenant GEOFFREY PERKS DFC
Flying Officer MAURICE WEBB DFM
Flying Officer JACK YOUENS
THE DEHAVILLAND PORTFOLIO EDITION
In addition to the ten pilots and crew who have signed the Limited Edition, each print has been individually hand matted to include an ORIGINAL fragment of Madapolam Fabric that belonged to de Havilland 98 Mosquito Prototype W4050. Also matted are the ORIGINAL signatures of two of the greatest Mosquito pilots of all time:
Group Captain JOHN “CATS-EYES” CUNNINGHAM CBE DSO** DFC* AE FRAES
Group Captain LEONARD CHESHIRE VC OM DSO** DFC*
