Wow! Read about the P-40 thinking it might be many years before something similar happens and today it's announced that 20 factory crated Spitfires have been found:

Oops! I don't know how I missed that. Been crazy at work the last month or so but still, I usually check this site out every couple days.
Tried to find a video of them un-crating one but no luck. That would be neat to see.

They've located and seen, but as far as I'm aware they've still not actually been dug up yet.

A bit aged this story now but it's interesting in the sense that no developments have been reported for about a month.

Other than Cameron wanted to give the job to one of his mates :stare:, taking it off the old farmer who's been searching specifically for these birds.

No, even for an ardent blue he's beginning to get my goat! By time he's finished even BossMark would be wanting Thatcher instead. :damn:
