Indeed, there will have been thousands of people who have seen this beauty :D

But I am also sure only a few happy people will still have the pictures :D

Who knows what the plans with the Zippers are? Will they bring them back to flying conditions or are they just for parts?
Who bought them, Transworld Starfighters?
Just love the smell of JP-4 fumes in the morning!!
