The People's Mosquito The People's Mosquito has a simple aim: to see the return to the UK skies of the de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito. The project is a non-profit and benevolent one that reflects the public movement seen during the Second World War when many aircraft were funded by the people: companies, towns, villages and organisations. We plan to replicate that model by asking the people of the United Kingdom to help us restore to airworthy condition this magnificent flying memorial that captures the spirit, the pride, the design brilliance and above all the courage of our nation.

www.ww2fighterpilots.com E.A.W. Smith served in the Royal Air Force for over five years, in the Second World War. He was a fighter pilot, who flew Spitfires in ninety operational missions. He is an authority of air to ground warfare.
His war book, Spitfire Diary was published in 1988, by Wm. Kimber, London. It was republished in the United States in 1995 by Eakin Press, Austin, Texas. A third trade paperback edition was published by Eakin Press in 2000 and contains an important addendum, relating to the book and the war. Spitfire Diary captivated many reviewers, including such notables as Walter Cronkite, who wrote:
This is a most unusual and very special book. Almost half a century after World War II, here comes a volume of personal reminiscence, a collection of diary and letters that takes you right into the Spitfire cockpit, the briefing room, the ward room, the barracks in a manner that few novels and no histories have ever done. Ex-Spitfire pilot Smith, with his utter disdain for literary pretense, has given us an unusual candid, colorful, and yes, affectionate picture of the brave and brazen men of the RAF. I found the book to be a real delight.
