I would imagine mass balances, you’d probably have to spend your whole life licking them to have an effect though
The Chinook video is great, the people in the farm must have wondered what they did to anger the Americans so much!
If he had it would have been crashed parts, no K’s exist

This is What Gregor says about the machine:
Our parts are airworthy at the actual situation, but the projects aim is to achieve a Bf109 k4 for taxiing only, cause of it is very rare at the end.
Couple more years and it will be complete!
The quality and depth of work Gregor has put into his machine is astounding, a difficult project to be sure!
Bought it in Aachen 7 years ago before the exchange rate went walkabout.
Air France destroyed the preceding black fabric one in 2 years.
Despite their best efforts – after 7 years and with only two pop rivets for repair – it is still going strong. So it is cost effective and with all the dents and sticky labels looks better than it did at the start..
Mind you the two small feet were lost somewhere in CDG within the first 12 months -hence the pops.
oh thats not to say I don’t want one! Quality comes at a cost…
you know how much those cases cost!!
Sounds like Catch-22
Thanks for that Roger, found another video too:

hopefully it will not be ‘fully restored’ as the video suggests.
Edit
I’m still amazed just to see people getting on with something and doing it correctly, I didn’t think that happened anymore!

Surely that should read, seller to buyer, would make more sense……

Something like that ; )
I would never use a mag to list and sell an item just for the record
I think that a for sale section here would be a very welcome addition, simple buyer to buyer with no risk exposure for the site owners.
Just found Justins website about his RB211, looks like a lot of hard work has gone into it.

Edit
in respect to the stand apparently some things are being changed before future runs
