It's a nice find but I'm not sure it makes any difference since it's not the only set of drawings around, and the ridiculous tabloid headline that they will "allow 'Wooden Wonder' to fly again" is just bullshit. Unless the numpties at The People's Mosquito think they can sell the drawings for several million pounds!

It probably includes drawing registers & change notices which would allow you to determine which drawing and what revision was used when (probably not sufficient documents there to include why). Aircraft drawing stacks are always changing so just having drawings doesn't let you make an identical copy, particularity with something that had as many structural issues as the mosquito.

Camden Museum of Aviation also hold a huge set of drawings. I know that some of these have been used in the Kiwi rebuilds.

That article claims that the last airworthy Mosquito crashed in 1996. That hasn't been true since 2012. |
