    I don't know for sure, I would compare it to the high end vintage Ferraris. A few more showing on the market, some decent deals, but prime examples still selling where they have been. I've seen T-6's soften $25-50k. Courtesy has a decent Mustang for only $1.5 M, but I can't seem to access their site right now.

    I think it is inevitable.

    You can say that the market is insulated, as warbird owners are so wealthy that downturns don't materially affect their toys.......yet not all warbird owners are in that category, correct ?........therefore........deals are to be had over time.

    or maybe they were wealthy enough before Madoff and the rest of the 2008 debacle

    My guess, the even better news for the warbird owners and wannabes, is the drop in petrol prices.
