When we start to build aircraft of 3-inch armour and accept a top speed of 28 knots then we'll have a fair comparison. There's also a bit of "Trigger's Broom" from Only Fools and Horses going on. How many times can you completely refit a ship and still claim it's the same one from 1914?

The Shuttleworth collection have a 1909 Blerios XI (G-AANG) that's still airworthy Shuttleworth Old Warden Park - The Shuttleworth Aircraft Collection
