Mosquitos launch a blistering attack on a fighter station deep inside Germany. Arriving over the target at little above hangar height, the two-ship mission announce their arrival by raking the field with cannon and machine gun fire. Within seconds both aircraft have scored direct hits with their 50lb bombs, and before the defensive flak guns can get the range, the pair have departed for home. NZ 487 Squadron, RAF was renowned for their exploits with this aircraft. Four of these aircraft have been rebuilt in New Zealand over the last number of years.
