In New Zealand we have a few up and coming:
- two Achim Engels-built Fokker E.III reproductions: one at Omaka (which was formerly flying with TAVAS in Australia) has had several engine runs; and another with TVAL at Masterton has recently been registered
- a Fokker D.VIII which was also part of TAVAS' fleet, again at Omaka
-
Lockheed 10a s/n1145- Jerry Yagen's Curtiss Hawk 75A-6 CU-554 (Finland) may be next up for Avspecs after the Mosquito as her wing was recently completed by Precision Airmotive in Australia
- Curtiss P-40E 41-36018/ET664/White 25 (VVS) for a Dutch group may fly in 2024 from Pioneer, who are also working on Jerry Yagen's SBD
- TBM-3E Bu91110/ZK-TBE should fly again with a new engine after a long period on the ground
-
Folland Gnat XR987 may be late in the year, more likely 2025
ErrolC may be able to add a few?
