Most of these questions are addressed in the current Classic Wings. The original fuselage is available for sale and/or trade
Dave, could you confirm with us when Classic Wings reported PZ474 arrived at AvSpecs? Thank you!
- I had it at my desk when I wrote that "Classic Wings" reported PZ474 as being shipped to New Zealand in 2014.
It would be interesting to learn more from Avspecs about just how many duplicate parts they may have made while working on KA114, and then TV959, to ease in the rebuilding of the following examples that are currently in and/or will be going through their shop. Rather than having to make each new part every step of the way with KA114, by sourcing original parts, finding the drawings, or making the drawings, and then manufacturing the parts (all put in simplest terms), I wonder now if perhaps, having done so much of that sort of thing with KA114, that perhaps now the job is a bit simpler - perhaps so much as already having amassed a certain amount of parts pre-made/on-the-shelf ready. It's every restoration company's dream, I believe, to be able to run such a factory-like production of sorts, with multiple restorations of the same aircraft, as it cuts down on production costs - rather than having to do all of the "gearing-up" for just one aircraft, it helps to spread the cost out if you can do several rebuilds/production runs of the same item - at this time, there is as many as at least 5-6 Mosquito's in all that will have gone/will be going through the Avspecs workshop, having started with KA114, but of different variants though too.
