I'm sure if we all pitch in we can get an official 506th IR Blackhawk.

I'm sure in 10 hours we could raise $200,001 dollars.

Interesting. Now if only I had that much money, I'd probably buy it.

Current bid is at $600,000 USD and the reserve isn't even met.

That bird was actively flying in the 80s.  I would be afraid to get in it.  It does look pretty though.
