Canadian Mosquito restoration - flight imminent
Tue Dec 10, 2013 2:43 pm
The VAM's Mosquito restoration project is progressing nicely - some recent news and photographs courtesy of VAM below! I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere yet...
It'll be great to see another Mossie, particularly a bomber variant, airworthy in the near future.

Once?
better than Nonce!
She's a good looker. The paint police might query the hi-gloss finish I suppose...

I imagine IF she does fly more than once, the paint will star to dull and flatten out.
