one of the big things youll find hard to find is a fairey reed prop, the alternative is a hoffman which isnt as good. Brake unit is quite complex and expensive plus you have X-rays to contend with as well as its oil and fuel burn etc. Just think though, it could be worse, it could be a spitfire!!
Its a damn good aircraft with fantastic lines and well harmonised controls, I just love it
