Mosquito!!!

Of all the people that went to the Mosquito launch airshow at Ardmore [NZAR] last weekend, I must be able to last person to post any photos :-)

After coming home from the UK on Monday 24th, I then left for a long weekend in Auckland on Friday 29th [and yes, I'm enjoying being home right now!]. The key attraction of course was the only public display of the de Havilland DH98 Mosquito F.B Mk 26, ZK-MOS!

Being Ardmore, and one of the main "Warbird" airfields in New Zealand, this was always going to be a good show, including a wide range of other aircraft, but there was no doubt who the star of the show was! Mind you, a Blunty and an Avro Anson were pretty big attractions in their own right.

Anyway, there will be a whole lot of photos of the airshow over the next few days, but to start off, how about a few Mosquito pictures? Here we go!

  3. Man it was hard to shoot that plane with my crappy camera. It was so fast I couldn't pan fast enough to keep it in focus.

  4. Yeah, I was on the other side of the airfield, and the worst thing for me was the light. Apart from that, AWESOME! :-)
