Some interesting points Airbedane, would love to know more about the costs of rebuilding warbirds, for example if Hawker Restorations can manufacture new hurricane airframes and parts what is the value of a hurricane wreck raised from a lake but with an original RAF serial number compared to a new build example ? another example that springs to mind is TFC MK9 Spitfire wreck that is in store awaiting rebuild , what would a wreck like this from Russia etc cost to purchase compared to a new build airframe from say Airframe Assemblies ? It would be interesting to know more about the costs involved in rebuilding these aircraft, What would it cost to purchase a wreck, and more importantly what costs are involved in rebuilding it to the complete/airworthy state where it is worth upwards of £1M ?
