Goodbye New Zealand; a Mosquito gets packed away.

Hi Guys, I went up to Auckland to see the latest Mosquito being pulled to bits. This is going to the Flying Heritage Collection near Seattle, where it'll be put into a new colour scheme and flown for the delight of a new audience. So, it's goodbye to New Zealand for another Mosquito...

Take a look here for more close ups of the Mossie being dismantled: warbirds

Oh, I think Mr. Allen will suspect something in short order. I wonder what paint scheme he has planned for it.

Shame to see it leave NZ but intrigued to see the new scheme.

Good shots!
