Rare Mosquito aircraft to fly at Abbotsford International Airshow

Catch an extraordinary glimpse of history on August 9 & 10, where one of only two airworthy examples of the de Havilland Mosquito in the World today will fly at the Abbotsford International Airshow.
This rare piece of aviation history was expertly restored right here in British Columbia, starting in 2009 after its purchase by Collector, Bob Jens, in 2005. This Mosquito saw its first taste of flight in forty-eight years only a few weeks ago on June 16, 2014, becoming the only the second flying Mosquito in the World.

The Abbotsford International Airshow is honoured to host this iconic piece of aviation history and extends our heartfelt congratulations to everyone involved in this incredible restoration. The restored aircraft will fly, and remain on static display on Saturday, August 9 & Sunday, August 10. Don't miss this opportunity to meet a significant piece of Canadian history! Get your tickets now.
