Hi Paul,
Great, then I have something to look forward to in a few days - the mail service always seem so slow when one is waiting for something good!
The G-14 is not listed on my site since it is a full scale replica, using original parts and newly made ones. It is not "rebuilt" from a wreck. But it is a very special replica since it uses old genuine Luftwaffe repair metal sheets from 1944/45. So in one way it is "original". The owner also have an original ID-plate with a serial number which will be attached to the fuselage, but still, it's a replica and the owner refers to it as a replica.
Of course a new section for really, really ambitous replicas could be added... :-)
