WW2 Mosquito aircraft blueprints found at Airbus factory

Did anybody see this:

"WW2 Mosquito aircraft blueprints found at Airbus factory"
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-nort ... s-40873628

Seems like a lucky save... especially when you think how many aircraft types have been consigned to history and there are no longer any design records.

Yeah I saw that but forgot to post it up. Looks awesome!

Bunny was on about building the Mossy for TF.X but after some conversations about it, and some particular interest from Mickey, we decided that the Typhoon should come first.

Oh man! A Typhoon in Cliffs? That really would be awesome. Is somebody actually working on a 3D model then?
