Apparently the Defiant contained a hell of a lot of magnesium - the bane of any conservator.... Sorry to be pedantic.. I'm not sure exactly how much it contained, but I know it was a lot relative to other contemporary a/c


: Well - the Defiant was built of aluminium whereas this is
: aluminium sheet on top of a wooden supporting structure so

: away from the original product.
