It will be made flyable or only for static exhibition?

It would not fly even though airworthy because the owner Mr. Harada's desire is to recover lost airframes as many as possible.

The father of one of the Japanese families that we knew well in Tokyo had been a machine gunner in the IJA during the War. He was home on leave toward the latter part of the conflict and he told his family what he had seen and that the war was lost. Unknown to him, the Secret Police had put a man to investigate him and he had crawled up under the floor of the house and overheard that conversation. The father was arrested and imprisoned until the end of the War.
