This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Of course in the US, they have to grind them up into little pieces before DRMO will sell any part of a fighter to the public. Heck, you can buy main battle tanks as surplus in Britain, they just yank the breech block off the main gun! :shock:


And look how often their warbirds are used against the government of England...... After 9/11 congress tried to ground all warbirds in the US and talked about cutting the wings off them, even the WW2 ones just another hint at how stupid and fearful the government really is at times. What damage could a P-51 do against an F-16? Congress also talked about banning R/C planes as they could be used as a weapons I swear the whole lot of them need to be examined for some kind of stupidity disorder what on earth could a balsa wood or foam plane do to a building besides bounce off?
