yes sir!!that is the follow up can you imagine brand spanking new spitfires with 0 time on propeller and zero time on engines
I would dare say each plane's value is around 800 000 dollars although my personal preference is the F-4 corsair I would sell my rocket 3 for a day of flying in a spit!!
dreams .......alas...
