Filmmaker and aviation enthusiast Peter Jackson agreed to a second six-month exhibition on the condition the museum located and bought for him a vintage <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rafmuseum.org\/sopwith-f1-camel.htm\" target=\"NEW\">Sopwith Camel airplane<\/a> engine. Te Papa spokesman Peter Brewer said a deal on an engine found somewhere in the northern hemisphere should be settled by Christmas. The engine cost &#8220;a fraction of the amount&#8221; the museum would otherwise have had to pay Jackson in licensing fees, he said. It is understood Te Papa paid trilogy backers New Line Cinemas up to $500,000 for the first Rings&#8217; exhibition in 2003. The studio had since signed over the licensing rights to Jackson.
