Perhaps my all time favourite warbird. Excellent news, I hope she makes it to Duxford.

Yes, it's terrific that a Mossie is able to take to the skies again. I'm fortunate that the Virginia Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach, Virginia USA will be the Mossie's home here. The Museum has a very impressive flock of warbirds and puts on some great airshows.

S!

Mosquito is one of the most legendary planes. Wooden Wonder, Termite's Dream and whatnot was it called But was very fast and versatile packing a real punch. Didn't they find the original "forms" on a dump which were used to make the fuselage? They were rescued and put for display somewhere.

i wish they could build new ones, like the FW 190, but it'd be difficult, even though most of its is wood . . .

thanks for the update on the Mossie


"In 1940 I could at least fly as far as Glasgow in most of my aircraft, but not now! It makes me furious when I see the Mosquito. I turn green and yellow with envy. The British, who can afford aluminium better than we can, knock together a beautiful wooden aircraft that every piano factory over there is building, and they give it a speed which they have now increased yet again. What do you make of that? There is nothing the British do not have. They have the geniuses and we have the nincompoops. After the war is over I'm going to buy a British radio set - then at least I'll own something that has always worked."

— Hermann Göring


I also read the Germans came up with the idea of a twin engine bomber that was so fast it could evade fighters and have none or minimal defensive weaponry. But the British were the only ones to actualize that idea.
