+VIDEO The world has another airworthy de Havilland Mosquito. NZ2308 made its first flight for 70 years after a full restoration by renowned warbird specialists Avspecs.
The aircraft flew at New Zealand’s Ardmore Airport where Avspecs is based. It was flown by American Steve Hinton, one of the world’s top warbird pilots, who will also be flying the Mosquito at the Warbirds over Wanaka airshow at the end of this month.
Avspecs Limited was formed in 1997 by Warren and Colin Denholm to provide a fully dedicated restoration facility for warbird and vintage aircraft.
