yes, i guess Bob and Zig will part it out. The real shame is that we had completed all the airframe work.

John, its great to see that you and Ginny came through in good shape, tidying the yard will keep you fit and provide an excuse for a few beers - or single malt - as appropriate. Salvage the parts of the AN-2, and you have spares for the next one you buy - things in Russia are cheap right now.

Not the AN-2! Looks like it's reduced to a parts donor, such a shame after all that work. Would have thought it deserved hanger space rather than just tie downs.
