In 1941, the world of aviation had one rule: Metal means speed. Wood was for furniture, not fighter planes.
So when the British Royal Air Force unveiled the de Havilland Mosquito—a bomber made almost entirely of plywood and balsa—German High Command laughed. They expected it to burn, rot, and fall apart.
They stopped laughing when it outran their fastest steel fighters.
Desperate to understand how a "wooden toy" could be invincible, German engineers captured a crashed Mosquito and tore it apart piece by piece. They planned to copy it. They had the wood. They had the plans. But they hit a wall they couldn't break.
The secret wasn't the wood. It was the glue.
This video reveals the fascinating chemistry war that doomed Germany's attempts to clone the Mosquito.
