Great stuff...but why is there always a vacuum cleaner butting in when you want to hear a real aeroplane?:a1451:

More thanks than one individual could possibly make, to Glyn Powell, Jerry Yagen, and Avspecs for making all of this happen! What a great thought to process, that we now live in a world in which a DH Mosquito is flying once again (first time in 16 years). It might be surprising to some, unless you've been keeping up with it, that the aircraft has already conducted 3 test flights so-far, with both test pilots, Dave Phillips and Kieth Skilling, taking turns. It will be great to find out how many they are able to fit in today, before the up-coming big event. The cowls are reported to now be completely painted.

This air-to-air photo was taken yesterday (it looks right at home in the sky): http://www.network54.com/Forum/1496...om+yesterday's+maiden+flight+(pic,+hopefully)
