Hi Rob--
Course $10 mil might not do five...but it's hard to keep one's wish list to so few! Some of my candidates:
FG-1A "Lucky Gallon" (incomplete at Walt Soplata's)
Fury WG567/N878M ("Miss Merced"--1 of 2 ex-RCN flyers)
Seafire PR503/N535R (Fisk)
Beaufighter RD867 (incomplete at CAM)
P-51H at Lackland AFB
As a Canuck I'd add two...Jack Hovey's P-51 (ex RCAF 9255, the original BA:U of 424 Sqn RCAF) and any ex-RCAF P-40 (so as finally to see one on the NA circuit in its true colours!)
