Must....resist....urge to book ticket......have to..... cut up....Visa card.

Can you imagine? The Aristo Craft Grummans and Beechcraft are worth $500 alone. I'd pay big bucks just to stand in the same room for a few minutes......this must be a cruel joke

Man I would give most anything to be there with big wad of cash, and truck.
I bet the price of vintage kits on e-bay will go down when this stash floods the auction site, unless it all goes to one buyer. He will be sittin' pretty.
