If that is not enough I dunno what else you would need to deem it as precious.

IF we still had these, would you fly Udet's Fokker VII? Or Don Gentile's Shangri-La?

Please read the link to the restoration history that I posted above, I'm glad the plane is in the right hands really, cos I think you guys fail to comprehend the value of this machine.
to be honest Amelia Earhart would be much more precious to me, the machine is just an artefact, an object made of various materials that are a bit old now, sooner or later museums will need to make space for eurofighters? and the world moves on.

yes I'd fly the crap out of them and have a boner while I do it....but thats another story
