You acquire Moscow based "Businessmen" as your partners.
$4,000,000 is probably at a stretch, what it's worth, in totally rebuilt and pristine condition, but as usual, they want their profit out of it now, and by profit, I mean all of it.

Contrary to popular belief, it is NOT the last Buffalo in the world, and as soon as someone finds another one in Malaysia or Java, the value of that aircraft will be reduced significantly.

As Bruce says, Monthly payments -lol That would be a monthly payment of $4,000,000, as far as the Tovarich's are concerned. How many Spits or Mustangs, in that condition, can I buy for the same money? I might be able to make the Nanton Halibag a flyer for that, and more people would turn up to airshows to see that flying.

Oh, and is it possible, for one of our restoration experts, to give an estimate of rebuild costs, hulk insurance etc?
