That's "garage" hobby, not "garbage" hobby. But I understand what you are saying.

I think tractor-pulling is an interesting sport with a bit of history behind it. And when boat racing peaked, there were Merlin's a-plenty with few airplanes to put them in.

My point is that I think we're at a point where whatever is left of the aero engine supplies should be conserved as spares for the future to keep historic aircraft in the air for future generations to see and enjoy. And I'm hoping that those using (abusing) these rare engines for other purposes will realize what they are doing. But, it's their money...
