[simpits-tech] Anyone have a few thousand dollars to spare?

Keep dreaming Matt.  Every new invention, business, human movement or
best selling novel started as a dream.

There seem to be a bunch of A-4s in the background, I wonder what's
going to 
happen to them?

I don't know how much they demil them, though.

The A-4 is one of my favorite aircraft, it's sort of been a dream of
mine 
for a long time to own or fly one. Not much chance of that unless I
become 
fabulously wealthy or move to Argentina, or another country that still 
operates them, and join their air force. There's also a couple private 
companies with fleets of A-4s for training purposes. I know there are
also a 
couple flying A-4s registered to private individuals, so it wouldn't be 
impossible to  fly one someday, just extremely unlikely.
Maybe I'll have to eventually settle for an A-4 simpit, but, hell, I can

still dream, can't I?
