Six months! Blimey they must have one hell of a workforce. If you ask me this a/c needs the most careful restoration to be done as possible. Still in totally original condition when pulled from that Karelian lake the restoration efforts must call for a cautious approach (expensive but if the owner wants their a/c to be authentic this is what needs to be done), as Jeremy Moore is doing with Paul Allen's 190, everything 'should' still be in it, although I have heard conflicting reports as to the current status of the airframe, I sincerely hope this isn't the case but the whole recovery/dealings side of the a/c are rather 'dodgy'. I mean how many Warbirds still have their original wartime paintwork on them!
