Mosquito ZK-PWL is Now Registered in the US

The DH 98 Mosquito T43 ZK-PWL was cancelled from the New Zealand register on 16/5/24 as exported, and it was then shipped to Planes of Fame at Chino in California:

It was registered N2308Z to Spitfire Ventures LLC of San Antonio in Texas on 31/5/24 (a nice play on NZ2308) after reassembly by a crew from Avspecs.  I don't think it has flown in the US yet, but recently was outside where Craig Bryant took this photo and posted it on the Planes of Fame Facebook page.

My guess, because of the placement of the registration, is that it will be painted in a new colour scheme.
