It wouldn't matter if you did use a falsie Christer.....that long IP number at the top says it all !

Hmmmmmm....I too would have thought that as low a cost as possible would encourage people to buy them.....not the other way round.......?

After all, you could start building one plane at a cost of two, three or four million, because you have to build all the jigs and tools etc as well.....but if you built ten, then the cost per unit would come down dramatically because the set up costs are distributed equally amongst the whole production run............that's of course why the new warbirds are put into series production rather than just building one............same goes for re-building certain aircraft like the Hurricane or Spitfire or Oscar etc..........that's the kind of economics I always understood anyway !

Or did you mean something else Tom......
like some people only think something is worth having (bigger EGO etc) if they paid a full suitcase for a warbird, rather than just half a suitcase.......know what I mean ?
