Hey, that's practically down the stret from me... If I wasn't spending so much money on my car, I'd consider buying it. LOL

The same guy is not only selling his Spitfire, but a lot more of his aircrafts. For example he is selling five (5!!!) Buchons that he has had in store since 1969. The Buchons last made their last public apperance in the movie "Battle for Britain". Sof if it's practically down the stret from you I'd consider seeing if there's a possibility to visit the collection before it's all sold of. I don't know if it's open to the public since it's a private collection, it has not been a secret at least and there's reports and photos in magazines.
Buchon = Spanish made Me-109 with Rolls Royce Merlin engine

5 of them? There is a thing now to take the Merlin out and replace it with Damiler-Benz engine (601?) the make a Bf109, I saw one them flying at airshow, fantastic! also I think Buchon is Spanish for Pigeon, why didn't they use a more aggressive name rather than a rat with wings?

They've got to be joking! Who in his right mind would pay $2.5 million for a plane with no bar cart or scantily clad bartendresses? That's just daft...

Hi All,
Bit of spleen venting here! I think I am going to get made redundant tomorrow... I think it's a case of my skill set not being in demand for the future of the firm. I am also pretty sure that my ability to conger up the test rig that was wanted in no time flat is part of it. I don't really think staying here much longer is on the cards either. I like parts of my Job just not all of it (common) but I have been thinking this for sometime. The last mess I was (am still partly) involved in has taught me the value emails so when you do 'thing' and 'thing' gets complained about ('I told you to do it differently to that!', 'No, you said do it like I have done it here, here is the email', retreat red faced!). What to do...

Take the redundancy money and start looking for a new job.
Or, come back as a consultant for twice the money!

What I'm hoping for is the redundancy, I'm looking for a new job now!

Sounds like a good time to move on from fattening some corporate fat cat's wallet.

Not necessarily a bad thing, as I think that would describe most of us, but we also earn a (hopefully) decent wage, and enjoy more of our tasks than not.

The thing is the company isn't huge so there is no corporate fat cat. The only thing that gives me solace is the economy is on the up! so maybe this is a blessing...(really?, I'm a glass is half empty type!)

Sometimes it's mission impossible to please people. All you have to do is give it your all, so you can always say with good conscious that you did your best.
Good luck on the job hunt! Every end brings a new beginning.
