Restored Mosquito airborne!

The Mossie that was being restored in New Zealand has now flown. What a great job they’ve done.

Nice find mate.

I love that plane as much as the Tiffy.

It needs to fly in the UK, its real home :slight_smile:

Nice! I hope the way they’ve made this will survive longer then the original so we can see it fly a long time into the future. :slight_smile:

What a plane my next favorite after the Spitfire - its a wooden rocket :slight_smile:

Thought I’d only ever look at my model, hope it visits?? Or we need to club together and get Classic to build one :slight_smile:

Thought I’d only ever look at my model

You mean you never saw RR219 flying…??? :o

Yes! Finally! The next memorable thing after the Spit. May it survive much longer and also come here to Europe.

Such a beauty!
