Mission by Moonlight by Gerald Coulson. COU39 Reproduced by permission of theDHM2597. Mission by Moonlight by Gerald Coulson. To commemorate this much loved and incomparable aircraft, Gerald Coulsons evocative painting depicts a Mosquito B Mk. XVI, a high altitude bomber version, on operations deep over occupied Europe. In this guise the Mosquito was by far the fastest piston engine bomber of World War II, and also the only light bomber capable of delivering the devastating 4,000lb block buster bomb.
