DeHavilland Mosquito NZ2308 was built in Australia and served with RNZAF 75 Squadron after the Second World War. After 70 years of idle decay it has been restored by Mosquito Aircraft Restoration in Drury and AvSpecs in Ardmore, New Zealand.

Here's some footage of the first taxi test and first flight test on March 18th, 2024.

Apologies for the sound quality - it was very windy and I was too far away to capture much engine sound. a little bit at 3:00 and one take-off at the end. My camera battery went flat just before the Mosquito came into view on landing.
