I was in NZ a few years ago with the old man, and saw a mozzie being restored, when he sent me the pictures of these ones recently I assumed it was the same one, but apparently its a different one, so soon there will be 2

Whodathunk that I could learn more about WWII aircraft on a bass site than any number of other sites.

Come to think of it, I learned more about vacuums on the FDP than any consumer site.

yeah that was the one, they had most of the body done and they'd just replaced the wing roots. they reckoned it was a couple of years away from flying, but then that was 3 years ago :) I think there were issues with the engines too, i seem to recall it had a merlin in one side and an allison in the other.
