de Havilland Mosquito movie stars -How they filmed the 1960s war film 633 Squadron #aviationhistory

Full breakdown of 633 Squadron: https://youtu.be/CIhSfeYyJjM Released in 1964, 633 Squadron was the first aviation film to be shot in colour. The movie follows the story of the fictious Mosquito Squadron, 633 Squadron, as they prepare and then undertake a daring, precision strike against a German fuel factory hidden deep in a Norwegian Fjord and is based off the novel of the same written by Federick E Smith. While the film is full of clunky dialogue, wooden acting and questionable script decisions, it stands out for some amazing and terrific flying sequences featuring actual de Havilland Mosquitoes. The film crew managed to scavenge together 10 Mosquitoes, five of which were airworthy and as a result capture some fantastic shots.
