Amazing.

They are late-war Spit XIVs, with the 2000+ HP engines.

I wonder how much effort would be required to get them in flying shape again.

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.

Has all the making of a fantastic reality TV series. He could finance this entire project with the revenue derived from it. Think about it. We could even have Geraldo Rivera host it. It's perfect!!
