Mosquito Victory

Author: Jack Currie   Series: Bomber Crews

Mosquito Victory
Paperback

Mosquito Victory is the final volume of the autobiographical trilogy which includes Wings Over Georgia and Lancaster Target. The anvil-top ahead of me was brilliantly white--whiter than a prince's pillow-case, or Caribbean teeth, or angel's wings. Pittam and I were flying at 25,000 feet, and it hung above us, dazzling in the April sun. Extract from Mosquito Victory.

Description

Sequel to Lancaster Target follows Jack Curries RAF life to the end of World War II. The compelling autobiographical sequel to Lancaster Target graphically and humorously describes all aspects of life as a WWII RAF bomber pilot on 'rest'. Mess life and antics intermingle with Jack's real task of instructing trainees on the four-engined Halifax bomber. Following his return to operational duties as a glider pilot, Jack was later posted to the elite Pathfinder force flying Mosquitoes of 1409 Weather Flight as a 'Weather Spy' where his weather signals provided vital information for the advancing bomber stream. An illuminating portrait of RAF life.
