Is this a twin-engined bomber? If so, there is one here, offering rides at certain times of the year. Operated by the CAF, I believe.
Was told it is the only airworthy example.

Piece on Sky News, [I think] a guy in the Ukrane has "rebuilt" a Ju87 and is flying "displays" in it. It was "supposed" to be a 100% rebuild, but looked a little suspicious [like a replica] to me. I could be mistooken though.

There was a two-thirds replica up for sale in Trade-a-plane a while back. It used to be on static display at a San diego Museum but was put back in the air. I believe it is a 2 seater and seeing as the "real" Stuka was a pretty big aircraft a scale replica will still look fairly impressive. I think it had a lycoming fitted. A snip at $75,000.

Thanks for all the info folks.
Buy that mother Aztruck - there's an old German chap round the corner from me who's late brother used to be the chap sitting in the back of that thing! Freaky hearing him relate stories about it.
