Mosquito Engine Run at Omaka

The first twin-engine run of the John Smith Mosquito since its final flight to Base Woodbourne in April 1952! On that day it was piloted by Johny Checketts, DSO, DFC, so it was only fitting that son Chris Checketts was in the cockpit on this momentous occasion. Thanks again to the team at Omaka and the Smith family for making this possible.

What's better than a Yak-3 running up its large gas-guzzling engine at 'full noise'? Well obviously TWO Yak-3s doing precisely that, one with a V-12 up front, the other with an 14 cylinder double row radial at the noisy end.
