John Smith's Mossie taxis at Omaka
Posted: Thu Sep 17, 2026 7:42 amHi folks,
On Saturday the Omaka John Smith Mosquito Project team conducted the first powered taxi of DH Mosquito FB.VI TE910/NZ2336 since about 1952. It was amazing to see and a real thrill. I'm excited for more people to see it at Classic Fighters 2027.
