• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The return of TE881 on British soil will mark a historic event for aviation enthusiasts: it will be the first Mosquito in flying condition in Europe for nearly thirty years, after the tragic loss of the T.III RR299 in July 1996. The new first flight is announced for the last quarter of 2026.
 
The UK needs one! I saw an airworthy one a few times in the US (unfortunately it wasn't flying the day I was there). UK skies are past due for being graced by one.
