The odds were against them: The night my dad's Lancaster was shot down in flames
When you look up at the night sky on Sunday, think of a flaming Lancaster and a 19-year-old from Toronto's Balmy Beach, swinging in his parachutenationalpost.com
What is that? Looks like something from Star Wars. Zoom it out a bit, can't pick it up with the tri-focals...LOL
That's a DeHavilland Mosquito. My father was in the RCAF in WW2, 409 "Nighthawk" Squadron. They were a night fighter squadron and flew Mosquitos. The Mosquito was an amazing aircraft. Made primarily of plywood over a metal frame and very fast with power coming from two Rolls Royce Merlin engines (same as a Spitfire). Below is a pic of my model made out of beer cans, LOL.
