The real thing, taken on Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula somewhere southwest
of Cappahayden. I hardly had to pan at all.

Bou! Hiss!

Or, as Scotty would advise, just reverse the polarity on the image
stabilizer...

It says something of the design philosophy that was followed at DHC, and more
of the market niche they carved out for themselves. I do not think they ever
built anything faster than a Mossie. Buffs, Caribou, Beavers, Chipmunks,
Otters, Twin Otters and Dashes were all slower, yet all post-date the Mossie.

ALL of the following were faster than the mosquito:

de Havilland Sea Vixen, Vampire and Venom - and that's only the fighters!

The Comet and Trident also come to mind.

Yes, but those are not products of DHC -- De Havilland Canada. Yes, the Mossie
was not an *original* product of DHC, unlike those that followed it, but it
was the major effort.
