Anyone got any gen on the possibility of a Mossie flying here in the UK ?
I'd say slim to none, given what those that actually know an awful lot about it say.

It cost Yagen in excess if US$7m to put KA114 back in the air, and he didn't need to do it with any CAA certification considerations.

So, if anyone has at least £10m in cash laying around, plus access to an identity and many of the metal components parts that Yagen had so much trouble searching out for KA114, then it's possible.....I wouldn't hold my breath though.

My gut feeling is, a UK airworthy Mossie ended with RR299's demise.
