Keeping the classics Going?

 How many aircraft and machines can be kept!

We all as nations and groups want to keep as much as we can to record 20th Century history, but can this collecting, restoration and re-builds be kept up!

So far many restorers and private collectors may eventually pass on to museum collections, but others would want to sell and recover assets for the work that they have done on their respective projects?

Many early aircraft of the first twenty years of human flight are now re-builds and are flying, adding some adventure to those basic and limited days and this come on our current electric revolution!

Costa Allegro.

In light of the sinking of one vessel, with the loss of 25 lives, another ship the Costa Allegro has had a fire and power failure in the Indian Ocean. 

What's wrong? This boat was not as big as the Concordia, but it broke down near to pirate waters north of the Seychelles. Perhaps the motto for cruises with this company should be 'adventures that could be fatal'.
