Guys, you have no idea how many aircraft even rarer than these Burmese Spitfires are stored all over the world.

Did you know there are 2 Bf-109F-4, two proper JG5 battle veterans, in near airworthy conditions stored in the US, one of them being for sale at $3mil?
Or that there are a Ju-87B2 and an Il-2 Sturmovik being restored to airworthy conditions in the UK?
Or that there's a Fiat G.59 being reconverted to Fiat G.55 in Germany?
Collectors tend to keep this stuff away from the public eye because there's far too many anoraks or people that want to chip in with their "skillz". It's sad but that's the way it is fellas..
