Very interesting BBC interview – the Airplane Restoration Company at Duxford is world famous. To think from planes that were considered so plentiful they were buried in crates – unused – to finding remains eaten by salt water for 70 years – lovingly restored today – Warbird collectors are like car collectors – ifnd an ID plate in the jungle and whatever is there is worth more than a “clone” –
