b.com: hi dave, i think you might find that the 25 in the title refers to the roman numerals XXV. B was the designation for the bomber versions of the Mossie, therefore the model Mossie pictured is a BXXV. IE: Mosquito B Mk 25 : Improved version of the Mosquito B Mk XX Bomber aircraft. Powered by two 1,620 hp (1,208 kW) Packard Merlin 225 piston engines; 400 built. See Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havi...squito#Bombers Beyond the Mk XX, DHC switched to Arabic numerals to denote marks. -- Andrew Chaplin SIT MIHI GLADIUS SICUT SANCTO MARTINO (If you're going to e-mail me, you'll have to get "yourfinger." out.)
