Hi
I am on the lookout for a set of decent structural drawings of Mosquito wings, especially the plan view. Reason being that the 1.5 metre Oboe repeater had its forward and backward looking aerials buried inside the wing structure and it all ties in with Oboe research.
Anyone able to suggest a source please? I am planning to contact the NZ company that has done four Mossie restorations.
Thanks
Paul
 
Hi
A bit more specific comment from my colleagues that explains better.

"#1 A plan view of the Mosquito Mk IV wings showing the internal structure in as much detail as possible. I can then superimpose the aerials and cabling which extend almost across the entire span - aerials in the leading edges and cabling back to the fuselage adjacent to the rear spar assembly. Diagram below.

#2 A dreamsheet at present, but essentially to model the wing and aerials at say 1/10 or 1/20 scale for a museum display, probably wall-mounted. For this drawings of ribs would be fantastic.

Obviously I am also interested in the other Mosquito Marks that were used with Oboe, but there was only ever one Mk IV with the aerials embedded inside the wing structure. "

Thanks, Paul
