Photographed at Tangmere in 1951, Mosquito NF.30 RK942 of 29 Sqn runs up its engines in preparation for some PIs (Practice Intercepts). “The bulbous nose of the night fighter version of the Mossie didn’t detract from its good looks”, says Ken Wright. “It was one of my favourite aircraft out of some 40 types I flew, and was a dream for low-level work".
