Maybe, but an aircraft nail down on the ground is an airplane death. Too clean, no sound, no smell... no soul. Their existence has meaning only in flight.And it's here they do vibrated our hearts and guts.
That sounds as though Saint-Ex himself could have written it
I agree. As long as all the safety precautions possible are taken and there are experienced pilots willing to fly them - why not?
Besides the landing gear could have failed on any aircraft (and do) plus the majority of this 'warbird' is new-build too...
