Saturday May 25th was the first time the Mosquito made
a full taxi in front of the public. It made an engine running appearance at
the beginning of the month, but only rolled a few feet forwards. |

Over this weekend, the Mossie taxied several times around the large grass flying area. The BBMF Dakota gave a flypast on Saturday and a full display on Monday.

Shortly after the Monday Dakota display, the sky darkened and at 15:00hrs, exactly as B-17 "Sally B" began to display, the Pacific Ocean dropped out of the sky onto the airfield. As a result, the B-17 shots are poor and several show heavy streaking from the rain. I got soaked. |
