Description
De Havilland climbed to 15,000 feet and flew for forty - five minutes, checking aileron and engine control. Then he made a perfect landing and taxied towards his father. Test pilot and engineer dropped smilingly out of the belly hatch, the first of countless Mosquito crews who throughout the war were to bless the little wooden aeroplane for a safe return.
