Rod Lewis's Mosquito has Flown in the US

A recent Facebook post from Lewis Air Legends shows the first flight of their "new" DH 98 Mosquito (c/n PZ474 ex ZK-BCV) from San Antonio, Texas.  The link is https://www.facebook.com/LewisAirLegends/videos/752686551831441/UzpfSTY4NTUzNjg0NjoyNTMyMjk3NTYwMTM3NTM3/

Contrary to earlier expectations, the Mosquito has been registered as N474PZ, and if you go quickly to the FAA register you can see it has been registered as a twin turboprop!

Rod Lewis was aboard for the first flight, with pilot Steve Hinton who is probably the most experienced US Mosquito pilot as he also flies the late Paul Allen's Flying and Combat Armor Museum example at Everett, Washington State.
