Nice of you to tell John what to spend his money on. I really have no idea how he's managed to keep a successful business going for over 30 years without you around to tell him how to run it.
Well I for one totally agree with the view that from an enthusiasts point of view a Firefly would have taken priority over a Spitfire...its just an opinion from a mere enthusiast, just like I have opinions of whom should be picked to play for England which often conflicts with those that the person who really matters holds. It all makes for discussion on forums, at work, in the pub and so on.
As you say the chaps at ARCO seem to be doing something right and quite rightly make their own decisions and clearly have very good reasons for doing so that those outside may not be privy too.....its all good.
What I dont understand is why you should have a problem with people having and presenting an opinion on a forum such as this, care to explain?
