As far as earthly possessions go.......
1)A cottage on the beach
2)and about 1000 acres to build the best range for all of us to have the best match 4 or 5 times a year.
........ Sorry........... And a good lookin' woman
......... So maybe that takes out 1 and 2 ?

How Times and Value Change
P-52s were available after WWII and Korea for about $50,000. Just inflation from about 1954 to today on 50K would make that worth about 444K.

To yours I would add...
a Spitfire, Hellcat and a Corsair. Perhaps a P-38 also. Maybe more! There is a repro Fokker Tri Wing at the Owls Head Transportation Museum here in Maine. I used to watch one of the Cianchette's fly it in mock aerial flights against other WW I craft they have. That Fokker could do the most astounding things in the air...almost turn on a dime. Was fascinating to watch.

Wilbur,
This is about the average price for a nice one.

I've been up in a Mustang...absolutely incredible machine. If I could go up in a Corsair and a P-38 Lightning, my life would be complete.
After the arrival of the jet fighter, Mustangs were sold for $750 and/or given to smaller countries.
The only more beautiful sound than that of a passing Mustang is the sound of Michael Moore being attacked by wolves...

I don't think a self respecting Wolf would touch that Skunk !

Something like this....
Maybe an Sonny's 903 CID on 4-stages. It would probably be just enough to rid me of the drag racing bug.

A few years ago, I'm sitting on the rocks fishing on lake Michigan, and I hear this sound coming. I had not yet seen the aircraft but knew it could not be mistaken for anything else, and suddenly, about several hundred feet off the waters surface comes a '51-!. He must have had clearance to be that low. It was a sound and sight to be remembered.
