How many Mosquitos are still flying?

I’m watching 633 Squadron again, and I wondered: How many DeHavilland Mosquitos are still flying? How many would be flyable if they weren’t on permanent static display?

According to Wikipedia, there are no Mosquitos currently in airworthy condition, the last one having crashed in 1996, and there are 30 preserved specimens in various museums.

Thanks for the link. Interesting that there is said to be a replica being constructed in New Zealand.
