Unique Plane Expected to Fetch $1-Million


National Post: A unique antique airplane that saw service in Alaska in the 1940s is expected to sell for at least $1 million at auction in Scottsdale, Ariz., this month. The 1929 Hamilton Metalplane is fully restored and is one of only two examples of the aluminum-bodied bush plane left in the world -- and it's the only one that is still flyable.

Only .61 mil Scott. We can blame it on the Ombama economy.

Thanks for the update Tex. At that price I'll take two. Ooops there aren't two left.
