Check out www.vicair.net. :shock:

Actual restoration of Mosquito underway to flying condition. Saw it this week and it is incredible! Will fly in 2010.

The only one left following grounding of Kermit Weeks 'Skeeter in Florida.

It's great to see Mossies still in the works. Not an easy plane to restore/build. It's sad that the last flying Mossie crashed in Scotland the week after the P-38 crashed at Duxford in 1997. I hate to see planes crashed faster than they can be restored.

Much more so than the JSI F-14, F-15, etc., the AT Mosquito is what I find myself looking forward to.

I am still trying to "look" forward to the Dauntless. But I am too busy enjoying my Skyraider and the WWI birds. :roll:

Some day... Hopefully, I will own my first Admiral Toys A/C.

Isn't it time for Admiral to make their newest anouncement? Seem to be running about every 3 months. Curious what they will not do this time.

yeah I have to understand the true motivation behind continually stirring interest... it's like just in case a pile of cash appears - let's keep up the hype
