Pick an Investment that's sure to take off – aircraft collectables

Very interesting Read, However, I wonder with the slump in Housing prices, shares etc ,if the Aeronautica hobby will be swamped with investors with lots of cash, which we saw with the classic car boom, at the last recession ??

I don’t think the classic Ferrari market has much to worry about. 😀

In fact, you could even see a sell of as people may need to turn items for cash.

the market has definately slumped a bit remember the Hurricane for £8000
