Wow, some very useful spares for others or for very expensive restoration work. I like the B25.

Nice, most look beyond saving but the Mitchel at least looks complete enough to become a museum exhibit

I think they look great sitting there rotting away. I actually prefer that to having them dolled up in a museum. If they could be persuaded to work again that would be a different matter but parked and untouchable in a museum I don't like.
