They unboxed a Mosquito from the RAAF depot at Archerfield and flew it at a Battle of Britain airshow in the fifties.
Have to wonder if that was the same one.

The Mosquitoes, particularly the Australian manufactured ones would not have survived in air worthy condition as the glues used to bond the airframe were natural products which break down with age.
A couple of years ago there were 2 Mosquito airframes being built in NZ around the remains of original aircraft. Haven't heard the current status of the project.
Is that Richmond Air Base?
Yep RichmondQuote:
