Slightly belated Happy Birthday to Colin Bell on 05/03 who survived 50 missions flying Mosquitos, 18 of which were over Berlin. Just seen a clip of him on Breakfast TV and he looks and sounds as if he's about 80!
I will be getting his autobiography that he has only just recently published called 'Bloody Dangerous' -should be a cracking read!

Great Guy, and I was tickled when he said the Spitfire was a second best to the Mozzie.;)
Probably because he had two Merlins to play with.

I saw the whole interview on bbc breakfast the man is a legend and very funny he deserves his own show.
 
Most beautiful aircraft ever made. I have only ever seen one flying. If I could have one dying wish it would be to fly in one.
