I know of another couple in nz that could easily be restored!

Maybe nz could change it's name to "Land of the Twin Merlin's!" tongue.gif

Avspecs are a great bunch of guys... world-beating restorations.
Pleasure to see people taking that amount of pride in what they do, too.
It really showed in the clip taken when the P-40 first flew.

3 Mosquito's! I have a de Havilland flightsim attack coming on...
