NZ farmer's secret WW2 aircraft collection of 60 years

Wonderful to see that there are still some of these aircraft surfacing after so many years..

Hopefully they can be properly preserved and exhibited..

Very nice to see people had the will, space and money to preserve the history.

Just wait until my wife finds the Sherman Tank in the shed.

I know that most of you guys from over there or down under get excited (and rightly so)
about the possible restoration of the Mossie but I have to say, I really like those old P40s.

Not everyone is solely driven by monetary gain bud. The aircraft are not being sold, but put on display at the Omaka Aviation Heritage museum, who with a team of volunteers are restoring them, before placing them on public display.
