'Sold Surplus in 1946 for $1,250...'

Dear me, if only I could take my stash back to 1945 and clean up... about £800 for a P38 (and we're not talking Isopon)

If you want a twin engined warbird, you'd be bettef off saving for a DH Mosquito

I love mosquitos too. But there is just something right about the lightening. Looks awesome.


I'll take both.

About as rare as hen's teeth though in an airworthy condition

I think there is only one air worthy mosquito.

That p-38 has done at least two trans Atlantic crossings in the not too distant past. It's been stood in a museum for a while but I'm sure it wouldn't take much to get whatever air worthy certificates it needs to fly again.


Seems a bargain to me

Now two - one in Canada and one in the US. There is the prospect of at least another one.
