Poland will , I think , be a good source of airframes in the future ...
... as will the Ukraine once the politics and 'other' problems are sorted out, man there's 109's still on Ukrainian AF bases, just sitting in the grass slowly deteriorating. The boss was telling me of a German fellow who has some good contacts in the aforementioned eastern state and has seen a load of ex-Luftwaffe a/c still on their undercarraige as the Germans left them 50 odd years ago. Then there's the one of a former East German airfield with a load of WWII Luft aircraft out in the woods rotting away on the edge of the airfield, if I remember rightly isn't this how some of the Wanaka poli's were found, just pushed into the woods and forgotten about until recently?
