REQ: Mosquito FB Mk VI Canopy Pictures

[Ed Kettler]

I have a buddy who is building an RC Mosquito FB Mk VI with the flat
windscreen, and we are looking for good pictures so we can get the framing
and shape right. Does anybody have dretailed pictures, possibly from the De
Havilland Museum or the Australian War Memorial, that they can post?

Many thanks and happy holidays!

Hopefully these will be of use. These are from the Lincoln Nitschke
collection in the Barossa Valley in South Australia.


The plane in question is a replica FB 40, which (as you're probably aware)
is the Australian production FB VI.



If anything else crops up, I'll scan it and post it.

You're welcome Ed,


No - this is just a one-man museum (one man and a dream)


It's an interesting little collection, mainly rescued gear from the local
RAAF airfield when it closed down - but they also have an RAF Canberra that
flew photo recon sorties over the USSR.
