It should be noted that the Mosquito was a very demanding aircraft to fly. The fantastic Merlins required skilled, experienced pilots to handle their power.

Single engine operation, especially at low speed and close to the ground, usually produced very bad results. Re: Manchester 1996.

Not sure how much time a guy would need to become proficient in a restored Mosquito.

(Still one of my favorites.)
