I know it was very "cool" to go to Kermit's place and see a Sunderland, not to mention his other exotic foriegn types on field. If not for the well heeled warbird operators that do exchange a/c across the pond we as spectators would not be afforded the luxury of seeing these types operated. How many people are willing to shell out the bucks to operate a Sunderland? How many operators are willing to rebuild a P-51C and have it shipped to England as a flying display? You can paint them purple for all I care...as long as they remain in the air!
