The restoration of Jerry Yagen's Mosquito at AvSpecs at Ardmore will take at least some months. It only uses parts of KA114 and is based on new fuselage and wings. As plans are now, the aircraft will be finished in the colours of 487 Squadron, RNZAF, during 'Operation Jericho', the famous bombing of the Amiens Prison on 18 February 1944.
