Btw, why the "guys with the money" owning British warbirds never use anachronic (and often poorly designed) elements when painting their aricrafts ?

I was of course talking (but of course everybody had it already understood) of Spits, Hurricanes, Swordfishes, Gladiators etc... that kind of warbirds which are always painted the right way without useless "rich dentists" additions.

P.S. I've also always found very poor that not a single Buchon has ever been restored in its very interesting Spanish airforce colors.

Funny...we've got one like that in the USA.

Rumor is it was once owned by a rich dentist. :axe:

We will begin some restoration work on the TB-25N 44-30635 at Chanute Air Museum beginning this fall after we complete our work on the P-51H. There is much to do with little to work with. I will be asking for the assistance and WIXdom of the experts and enthusiasts gathered here.
Thanks in advance for you support.
Curt
