Tiffy's affordable......
Hmmmm.....I think you'll need a bit more than what's needed to get '558 in the air for that kind of project.....

New build airframe from scratch without the aid of a complete set of drawings left in existance IIRC, not to mention the problem of an almost complete lack of suitable Napier Sabre's and most other mechanical parts........

Yup, the Vulcan is a cheap project by comparison....
