I just saw a newly restored De-Havilland Mosquito on it's maiden flight with a Supermarine Spitfire Mk XVI escort fly over my house! Here are some pictures of the ones we saw: (I just got them off the internet, they aren't ones I took):

@SkullsAndCrossbones @Tully2001 ikr!
@Fishbowl1121 np!
@Fishbowl1121 yeah! And congrats on gold :D
@SkullsAndCrossbones Yeah, I live on farmland with only 3 neighbors and the nearest shop is 15 minutes drive away, (the nearest city is 30) there are hardly any people here, so this is uncontrolled airspace. We get all sorts, people on paid spitfire flights, and MX aircraft practicing for airshows!
Try to build these
I saw@GT3TobyRS
@CALVIN232 yeah I know right! Look at my previous comment.
Nice
@Tully2001 @Fishbowl1121 @SkullsAndCrossbones @cobalT @jamesPLANESii @SuperSanic Oh my gosh I just had (over the last month) a T-6 Harvard do two loops and a roll directly over my house, and this MX aircraft stunt plane do stall stunts and all sorts near my house too! Plus this P-51 doing stunts and this Spitfire doing yet more stunts by my house! Plus I just realised I had the wrong Spitfire picture, so here is the real one.
@SuperSanic lol lmao!
Britishly Screaming
@jamesPLANESii yeah
lol! @GT3TobyRS
@jamesPLANESii no we didn't. I wouldn't want to just in case it blew up. I don't handle watching people die very well
Cool! did you go there and watch it? @GT3TobyRS
@jamesPLANESii It was scary! We were checking the herald every few minutes for an update. I don't live far from Ardmore, so we knew about the trojan and to hear that it was going to belly-land was quite scary! (Trojans are HUGE and are pretty much flying fuel tanks so we thought is was going to explode :( luckily it didn't!) We get quite a few warbirds over our way.
Yep! @GT3TobyRS
@jamesPLANESii did you click the link? there is a very badly filmed video of the belly-landing
Cool! I didn't actually. @GT3TobyRS
@jamesPLANESii yeah, it was pretty cool! BTW did you hear about the T-28 Trojan emergency landing in Auckland? here is the link. Landing gear failure.
You saw the Mosquito? I wish I was there!
@cobalT haha true
@Sharkie cool!
I saw a replica p-51 mustang the other day, and at my local airfield there is a Harvard and a replica spitfire.
YOU ARE SO LUCKY!!!!!!
