And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
This developed into the Strikemaster, a light ground attack aircraft, which looks the same at a glance but with war paint. I live near Wellington New Zealand and a guy who, I think, lives about an hour away by road has one. It flies over frequently in the weekend and is always low but fairly fast - maybe 250 -300 knots. They are cheapish to buy and operate being fairly reliable but pretty thirsty as early jets were. There are a few in private hands. The Royal NZ Air Force operated them but they became time expired due, I recall, to the main spars requiring replacement. They're called Blunts or similar because of their nose shape.
