Presumably this would need a huge amount of supplementary electronics to run and throttle up in the stand? I suppose you can't put a price on it as it's the only one in existence for sale, but I can't help but think if it was my £585k I'd probably want a complete aircraft for that much! Could you get a Cold War fighter jet for that kind of money?

It would seem so.

Nuts, as it’s just one big (heavy) paperweight.

Some rich plane nut will snap it up.

Substantially less than the Concorde engine, you'd have enough change to fund flying it for ten minutes too! 🤣
