The Plywood wonder. :)
Have seen several on the static displays ,but not flying.
The Lancaster is still flying. Hope to see it in a few weeks time.
Spits and Hurricanes are plentiful, you can even buy a new one.

Regards flyable Mosquitos, according to WIKI, there is one in the US and one in the UK being restored to flight status. I also believe there is one flyable in the UK but it is not on the list.

IIRC There have been several lost in Flying accidents in the last few years :-(
