Ok, thanks!
Well I know that the Peruvians are not interested in trading or selling their Douglas 8A-3P since the Swedish Air Force Museum have been trying to acquire it because they miss it in their collection. So I guess the Swedish museum will hav to rebuild one using bits and pieces they ahve found in farms and crash sites.
