A 7 - year - onetime kid came closer to make every kid ’s aspiration than any of us : He bought a tangible Harrier fighter K for $ 113,000 on eBay . Yes , a Harrier Jump Jet T - Bird Aircraft XW269 . The whole shebang , weaponry not included .
Sadly , his dreams were broken the same day , after his dad ground out about the leverage and quick get hold of the ship’s company selling it — Jet Art Aviation — tell them the story and asking to cancel the sales agreement . Obviously , they understood it and put it back on the auction engine block .
But here ’s the skillful news , kid : It was n’t really worth it . The airplane — which wing for the last time in 1997 after 26 years in the Royal Air Force — was not in workings experimental condition for effectual reasons . Fixing it would have cost you several million dollars . Chin up , though . Now you will be able to drop all that money in something a lot more awe-inspiring . You bang , like a college education .
