One thing is for sure. The companies who leased their aircraft to chicken airways, (as it is known locally, because their in-flight meals consist only of chicken :) ) are going to take a bath. One day, when the war is over and they come to collect what is left of the fleet they leased, they will find components fitted which were not supplied by the OEM, assuming that the aircraft is still flyable. In the foreseeable future, I predict there will be a surplus of spare parts from those aircraft that can be flown out. I might take some popcorn down to Cotswold Airport...
