Re: Mosquito FB VI 'close call'
Ian,
Very interesting - as I have an account by the late Sqn Ldr Clifford Wright recalling how the same thing happened to him when flying a Wellington Mk 1C, when the dingy came out of the stowage compartment in the wing and wrapped around the tailplane. Luckily it broke free and he landed OK. A few days later he got a call from the Air Ministry asking him for more details as they wanted to find the cause and fix the error presumably on the production line. He came to realise how lucky he was when they advised him that 'not many others had survived such a problem'!
