The main problem is the lack of suitable Bristol Hercules engines in captivity. The are plenty of later marks around which are cheap but they are no use to anyone apart from
if you operate the last Noratlas! The propellors are a licence built Hamilton Standard unit and as such it's not such an insurmoutable problem to overcome.
The airframe side of the job is relatively straight forward compared to the engines !
