Title: She flies again!
Post by: Silent Disapproval Robot on May 03, 2015, 03:38:13 AM
Some guys over on Vancouver Island have been working hard on restoring a DeHaviland Mosquito fighter-bomber and finally got her up and flying again last year.  I finally got a chance to go over and have a look and F-Freddie.   She's gorgeous and the roar of those motors is something you won't soon forget should you be fortunate enough to see her in real life.

Wonderful. I was lucky enough to see one at RAF Leuchars a few years ago - the sound of those 2 Merlin's is incredible.
