Default P-51 incident??

This from the newspaper article:

"Worldwide, there are only about 40 P-51s still flying, and they can
sell for more than $1.5 million, deBree said"

Forty still flying? I'd says it's about 5 times that number, perhaps
a bit more.


Given:


http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinqu...0&cmndfind.y=0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FAA Registry
Make / Model Inquiry Results

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Manufacturer Name Entered : None
Model Name Entered : P-51
Number of Records: 112 (Page 1 of 3)

What percentage of the registered P-51s do you figure are airworthy?
