I think it's prolly a Bristol Beaufighter...not a Mosquito. * |

This is the comment beneath the photo;
1:72 De Havilland DH.98 ‘Mosquito’ NF.52; '212/C White' of 10th Sqn., Royal Egyptian Air Force (REAF), Almaza AFB, circa 1950 (Whif/Airfix kit conversion) +++ DISCLAIMER +++ Nothing you see here is real, even though the conversion or the presented background story might be based historical facts. BEWARE! Also, read the list of tags: "what-if; fantasy; fictional". Get real guys!

Sure this is a model kit photo, but it represents a real aircraft. From the modeller's own description: "As a side note: this whif conversion is not as fantastic as one might think. Even though AFAIK no Mosquito ever carried radial engines, not even for trials or as a protytype, the I.Ae. 24 ‘Calquin’ from Argentina, a light bomber patterned after the Mosquito in 1947 as a domestic development, carried radials, but less powerful Pratt & Whitney R-1830-G ‘Twin Wasp’ engines." |
