Tom,
how many man hours are put into the average rebuild of a warbird? I mean a total rebuild of something like a Spit that escaped the smelters in the late forties and was rediscovered yesterday in basically good condition.
I understand that if you?ve done it before you get away with less tooling and fewer jigs to design but, if you had to start from scratch.
