De Havilland Mosquito (N474PZ) - The iconic Mosquito piloted by Steve Hinton and Walt Bowe providing copilot support. The cockpit is configured in a way where things like the fuel selector are located at awkward positions and having a second person for the otherwise single-pilot fighter bomber can help reduce workload, especially when the pilot is focused on flying excellent formation.br /br /Another note... generally we gave 5/10/20 (feet) increment callouts for how much change we wanted for the aircraft's position. But I was briefed for Hinton to do 1 and 2 feet increments. Another level of proficiency from the Warbird Legend and a Hall of Famer.

What a great shot of beautifully designed aircraft, all be it some of the idiosyncrasies of the cockpit controls layout. Where was this taken?

I know it's a long way off, but listen to Fredrick Forsythe's 'The Shepard' on CBC Radio (yes, Canada) at Christmas time. Once you hear it, it becomes part of your Christmas tradition.

I had no idea Steve Hinton flew a Mosquito. Has he started shaving yet?? But wow that's a beauty and great photo. I wish I could hear those twin Merlins passing overhead now....

Thanks: That Mosquito looks downright Beautiful! They sure took it to the Germans in WWII. Made of nothing but wood I understand.
Anyone know how it dueled with German fighters?

Nice bird.
I understand it was faster than the Fw190 and didn’t need fighter esclorts
