🚀✨ First Flight of the DH98 Mosquito! ✨🚀 On this day in 1940, the legendary "Wooden Wonder" soared for the first time! Built mostly from wood, the Mosquito became a WWII icon for its speed, versatility, and ingenuity. The Mosquito’s legacy reached across the Atlantic, as De Havilland Canada produced over 1,000 of these aircraft in Toronto, contributing to the Allied war effort and solidifying Canada’s reputation as a key player in aviation manufacturing. Today, the Mosquito remains a symbol of innovation and determination, reminding us of the extraordinary feats achieved under extraordinary circumstances. 🛠️ Fun Fact: The Mosquito was one of the fastest aircraft of its time, even outrunning enemy fighters on missions! Let’s celebrate the engineers, pilots, and visionaries who brought this beauty to life. Here’s to a masterpiece of aviation history! #WWII #Mosquito #AviationHistory
