I noticed on their website that the Focke-Wulf 189 A1 "Owl" which was salvaged out of northern Russia is already up for sale. From the pics it looks as though they are doing a top-notch job.

If only one of the Me-110 and Ju-87 could have been bought up by someone who'd get them in the air :( The shots of the 110 in front of he hanger really makes me wish I had several mil to toss at it. 8)

They were. Sir Tim Wallis had every intention of rebuilding one each to fly....until he had his Spit accident, and they were sold off to DTM.

John,

I was kinda puzzled by this one also. I had thought that there was some sort of group or "foundation" that was sponoring the rebuild effort on this plane. So I was abit stunned seeing it listed as for sale.
