Great GEG day out to visit De Havilland aircraft museum organised by John V6 to whom I'm very grateful.

Well armed Mosquito, one of three they had on display peeking out of hanger.



Massive tank busting cannon with 25 shell magazine installed under smaller calibre nose cannons used for sighting. Weight 800Kg!



Found to be deadly on U boats as well. Recoil from each shell slowed aircraft 20 mph despite being in a dive! Wooden airframe helped absorb the shock though.

Chipmunk, Vampire jet with Venom and Dragon Rapide in background under restoration.



Another Mosquito (first multi-role aircraft) with provision for bomb aimer co-pilot.
