Max Headroom Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I am currently building the old Revell 1/32 Mosquito and have been trawling the interwebby. I have found a colour movie montage and was taking screen grabs. I came across this.... Is that an extra window by the nose? Trevor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The wooksta V2.0 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Yes and no. It's one of the few aircraft modified for use by the Film Unit. They accompanied raids and took footage for propaganda purposes. DZ383 was one, I can't remember the serials for the others. One is on an Eagle Strike sheet in 72nd. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnAndersen Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 There was also DZ414 O-Orange, which participated in operation Chartage, the Copenhagen "Shellhus" Raid. (No, I did not misspell "Shellhus". For some reason, there is the misunderstanding that the danish word for house is the same as the German "Haus" - Its "Hus" without the "a") Anyway, DZ414 was involved and produced some footage that can be found. Not much value for present day modellers, but still. https://www.airmen.dk/sh3dz1.htm /Finn 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Boak Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I gather it is the Dutch not the Danish who specialise in that branch of archaeology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
