Am now very envious of those Canadians around Hamilton. Must have been a great show!

Any chance of having a flying Mosquito in Europe???


Enjoy.

Status: offline 		A friend of my fathers got a chance to fly that Mossie a couple of years back. He flew a pathfinder Mossie during the war.

Here is a list of all surviving Mosquitoes:

A number are under restoration.
