MOSQUITO Mk VI
CFS3 - V2.82.100
AvHistory 1% Aircraft General Statement and Installation Instructions
It is the intention of the AvHistory 1% project to over time build the most accurate aircraft that the CFS3 software can support. The development of a 1% aircraft requires specific and in many cases dramatic changes to the aircraft delivered with the MS game as well as the addition of aircraft built from the ground up by third parties which were never included in the original MS game. We believe that because the AvHistory 1% aircraft are materially different they should not be mixed with "box stock" aircraft in online combat.
All the planes 1% listed for download are qualified for use in our AvHistory William Tell Meet Air Combat Ladder. For information and to get the sign up sheet for the ladder please go to the LINKS section at http://www.avhistory.org
MOSQUITO Mk VI
This aircraft was built by Dan Walter using version 2.82.100 of the AvHistory 1% Assembly Line process. It is based on the MS Mosquito visual
The aircraft has been painted by Will Hunter as "BLACK RUFE" flown by Squadron Leader R. A. Kipp of 418 Squadron, The Royal Canadian Air Force in 1944. 'Black Rufe' is a character from the Al Capp "Lil Abner" comic strip which was very popular in the 1940's.
S/L Kipp together with his navagator F/O B. P. Haletsky shot down four Fw 190's on the night of May 3/4, 1944 and scored 12.5 kills overall and was awarded both the DFC and DSO. He was killed in a flying accident July 25, 1949
Operational experience with the Mosquito II in its day-fighter and intruder roles led to the development of the F.B.VI, a potent fighter-bomber which came into service during the early months of 1943. It had been discovered that the Mosquito was able to accommodate a much greater warload than that for which it had been designed, and thus the Mark VI, with a strengthened wing for external loads which later became known as the "basic" wing, carried a full complement of cannon and machine-guns, two 500-lb. bombs in the rear half of the bomb bay (the front half containing the cannon breeches) and two 500 lb bombs under the wings.
Mosquitos were active on D-Day, and right up to the end of the war. Others were license built in Canada and Australia. Production did not end in Britain until late 1950.
