Re: Is the Mosquito the greatest warplane of all?
It is beautifully restored and I would certainly love to go for a ride in it.
But........... "Is the Mosquito the greatest warplane of all?"
The short answer is "No".
However, if you want to narrow it down to WWII, piston-powered, British made.......
Sure, why not, call it what you like, since each person gets an opinion........
