Review of Mosquito Squadron (1969) by Stewart M — 13 Oct 2007

The wooden wonder (The Mosquito) strutting its stuff - Herman Goering once said about the Mozzy ""In 1940 I could at least fly as far as Glasgow in most of my aircraft, but not now! It makes me furious when I see the Mosquito. I turn green and yellow with envy.

The British, who can afford aluminium better than we can, knock together a beautiful wooden aircraft that every piano factory over there is building, and they give it a speed which they have now increased yet again. What do you make of that?

There is nothing the British do not have. They have the geniuses and we have the nincompoops. After the war's over I'm going to buy a British radio set - then at least I'll own something that has always worked." - I think this film probably stands testament to that.
