they are only about an hours drive from my place. If anyone is actually serious I would love to check them out with you. I was told a price a few years ago and It was cheaper than I thought, 50k seems to ring a bell

I just dropped them an e-mail saying I was an airplane nerd with no intent to buy but nonetheless interested in the price.

Doesn't need a long runway either. What a little devil for travelling. Give throttle, and 3 minutes later you're cruising at 10K....
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
