About 24hr before the four-year anniversary of KA114/ZK-MOS' return to flight. Bloody brilliant stuff. Again, Bravo to everyone involved. Awesome.

Well done Avspecs and Glyn Powell and all involved. Never thought I would see a Mosquito in RNZAF Markings flying in NZ skies. Glad the weather played ball.

Well, I vote it now HAS to be Sir Warren and Sir Glyn. Who's with me? I have to disagree Dave. Sir Warren is fine, but to me Glyn has always been Lord Powell of Ardmore, as Ngatimozart suggested 4 years ago.

Well, there's already some great pics out there and she's turning heads and moving hearts as much as her predecessor did 4 years ago! I think I shall henceforth remember her as NZ2337!

Facebook has been going wild with photos and video! We are so fortunate to have so many folks willing to share this stuff with those of us unable to be there in person. Thank you to everyone!
On Twitter about an hour ago the Flying Heritage Collection account posted said TV959 is "coming to FHC next year".
