I wonder if engine 002 is out there somewhere was well...

With engines and airframe what's the prospect of getting one to fly again? And in what circumstances would it be necessary?????

That guy on eBay does offer some startling prices... Few hundred quid for a compressor stator ring. My ejector seat (MB H7, ex Phantom) he reckons at about 3-4k, with all the trimmings. Even though I tend to acquire them as bare metal and without the parachute packs, I've never had to pay over £100. I just wish I knew what (non-bang) I was sitting on right now. I think it's '50s UK, might be a Valiant rear, but I've never been able to identify it.

£2M? They're taking the mick, even if they can provide full provenance, which the initial listing seems to be a little cagey about. But then I suppose 'eccentric millionbillionaire' is pretty much your only market...
