I built this replica of a famous Mosquito NF2 that was used by RAF 157 Squadron for Operational Training of new crews that arrived after being on Beaufighters. My brother-in-law's cousin flew as Nav-Radar Operator in this exact Mossie when he started his second tour on Ops. His first tour was as a Rear Gunner in Wellingtons early in the war. He then remustered as a Navigator and flew 36 Ops in RCAF 409 Squadron after a short career with RAF 157 Sqn.
