"Seems strange to me when enthusiasts moan about the fact that an aircraft was (re?)built from a few original parts and a dataplate."
That does not bother me.. I would love to see a "new build" Buffalo or ones built up from parts, just as I will love to see the TAF Oscars, the new Russian Yaks, any new Mustangs, any new HFL Spits, loved the TAF F-3's, the Russian Zeros and also the CFI Me- 262's
I just don't think it is ethical when people CLAIM that there aircraft is original when is was all or mostly new build.
The good thing about the free exchnage of info available on Internet is that it makes this harder now...
