sadly Aviation has gotten pretty ruthless the last few years, and i think now its more about big bucks and not the passion,Its the modern way of the world i suppose,

For a lot of people it is, but patience can brings its rewards, I could rattle off a few names of people who have spent a fortune to get there aircraft ground running, we on the other hand are funded purely from my back pocket and that is not very deep as many would vouch, but have collected a huge amount of spares for our Buccaneer, including engines and I have spent less than 5K over a 6 year period.

Granted, some of the components we have salvaged were in poor condition, but we have a network of local businesses involved with the project and get a lot of our reworks done on the cheap, sometimes even free.

My advice is keep looking, don’t give up and try not to buy your section through Ebay, everything has become over priced on there, I’ll keep my ear to the ground and see what I come up with.

I think it’s gonna be a case of… “move along to the back of the queue sir” , but what’s your budget ?

Hi, Nice work youve been doing, as for my budget it will be around the £1000
ish ,
and as for waiting at the back of the que, Well , really , Ive been lokking for the Past 10 to 15 years, for the right one to come along, and i allways seem to miss it,so i should be at the very front of the que, Ive spent years helping others, with time and parts, and research, so now i could do with something of my own, its all very well helping everybody, but sadly Aviation has gotten pretty ruthless the last few years, and i think now its more about big bucks and not the passion,Its the modern way of the world i suppose,
did you see my mates Provost starting up on the link i put in, sounds nice does’nt she, WV499,
as ive said i missed out, first one was Sea hawk from flowers yard, (bruntys got it,and offered it to me but i couldnt afford it at the time,)
next was a Mig 21 cockpit complete with all dials etc, from Babimost in Poland,(i had to pick up, ) but i was made redundant, and not long after that a Single seat Venom was offered, (whilst i was still redundant) since then, Nowt, and being as i am only interested in 40s-50s-60s jets, and limited on size(hence wh ive not bought a canberra) ive not managed to find one ,
By the way i am not having a go, Just letting you know the struggle i have had to find one,
kind regards
Chris C
