...on eBay for a bit more than 1 000 000 USD. the only Hornet in private ownership in the world. check it out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 3077361636

i know, i had to come up with this a few days earlier, but i don't think any of you would place a bid right?  ;)

found this article too: http://home.hamptonroads.com/stories/st ... &ran=47013

dangit! I wanted that too! If only I had known I could've bought it! :-)  ;D

Crap!  I had my bid in for $26.77 and got outbid at the last moment...

#1 and #5??  Who wants that one?  #2 is the one I'm after.

I know there are F-4s on the civil register but an F/A-18 in private hands when theyre still in active service  :o

If you will notice, the buyer has -1 feedback and is a fraud.

Wonder how they got ahold of it, and why Billy Gates didn't buy it?!

well, his nsurrance bill would be astronomical, the same as windows OS.... he would keepcrashin on end

It has been relisted, and the current highest bid holder has 1 positive feedback with two negitive. Another "fraud"?
I'll bid on it and when I win free rides for everyone here!!

I think that the person selling this is selling it the wrong way by using Ebay, he'll have too relist it over and over before he gets a serious bid! May be he should think about calling some museums or something?
But it would be cool, ultimate bragging rights at the local airport!

yeah if you could keep up with the maintenance costs...;-)

hey there were some people down here in Wichita that were rebuilding old fighter jets(including an f-14, f-18).  unfortunately they went out of business. I guess there arent enough excentric, super rich, pilot millionares out there

He also has a MiG 29 on there now....much cheaper!

hmmm...wonder why it's cheaper...:-)

And just for us poor folk, there's a T-33 there for the bargain basement price of 225,000.  :)

well shucks! What are we waiting for??? Did you place the bid yet???  ;D
