Hi Peter

Welcome to the board. A lot of this information is common knowledge and when we see people trying to sell it, some of us get a little angry.

Yes - aeroplanes are an expensive business and to do anything you need a bit of cash but there are many opportunists who will sell anything to make a bit of money. Given the histories of many of these aircraft - especially those where crew died - and may still be entombed within - it's not on - in my opinion - to make money out of them. Was the pilots body recovered from your P-51?

Being an entrapreneur is one thing but it's easy to cross the line of decency and go too far.

I'm not sure about the status of the Halifax and Wellington in terms of crew - others may be able to help here - but it is well known the Halifax has a full bomb load on board and to date no one has been allowed to recover it so it's bit naughty to try and sell it's location.

No hard feelings

Elliott
