The Mosquitos of no 2 Group usually used the Mk III
Low-Level bomb sight which was designed for use
below 1000ft and mostly used by coastal command

How did this work? How was altitude maintained? how was it entered
into the bombsight? Was it a computing bombsight?


From what I recall the bombsight was uusually used
in attacks at a fixed height of around 300ft , the
bomb aimer dialled in a spacing for the stick of bombs
and it released them at the correct intervals.
