Great find about the merc, thats what I love about old cars is the history behind them.

more can be read about the incident here http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rc...Ny5oObWv2mMY5g The pilot of the crashed jet also owned a few other warbirds including two mig 15's that were up until the last couple of months were lawn ornaments at Bathurst airport, not sure where they are now hopefully getting looked after. Sure theres alot of "cheap" warbirds, but not many "cheap" airworthy ones. especially ex military. They are usually worn out & need lots & lots of money (like 100's of thousands of dollars thrown at them all of the time) to keep them flying. A classic example is the one that crashed in Bathurst, it was a worn out airframe. |
