Chris, thanks for that link. I found it very interesting. It really is a
treasure trove of planes and parts. I hope that some / most of those planes get
back in the air where they belong...although someone will need very deep
pockets.

Subject: [OM] OT: Vintage WWII Aircraft Story
When I was in pilot training, there was a ranch with a private airfield to
the southwest of the base, which we all knew belonged to Connie Edwards, and he
was rumoured to have a significant collection of WWII aircraft, some of which
were converted from Spanish aircraft used in making the movie "The Battle of
Britain". He's now selling off the bulk of his collection, and here's a story
about it:
