I used to fly on Wednesdays when I was in Cali. It was fun to fly out to Chino Airport and
visit the restoration hangar there. The price paid currently, no matter the price,
will not pay for the labor and parts it took to complete the job! Work is done by a "fleet"
of volunteers. Can you imagine the cost of an overhaul of a P&W R-4360?
IIRC at the time I was visiting, they were in the early process of re-manufacturing a P-38.

There is no punishment too brutal or inhumane for the scum that did this to these poor folks. :mad:
Just another example of stupid ignorant people doing idiot things....kind of like after 911 idiots harassing or shooting Indian/Pakistani people because of their darker skin that made them appear to be Arab looking. People are just too dumb to get their facts straight.
