The Do-17 found on the English channel will be lifted soon, I'm looking forward to the day that she will go on display at Hendon. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22380915 |

Just keep everything crossed folks, this is going to be a very risky operation and they could end up with a jigsaw Dornier instead of an intact aircraft. In regards to why he says "it won't be here next year", which at first puzzled me because after all it's managed seventy odd years down there just fine...but then again, its location wasn't known at that point, and it's only a matter of time before the vultures descend on it and pull it apart, so it really is a case of keep everything crossed she comes up in one piece. |

I like WW2 Warbirds. A little piece of me dies every time I see one break beyond repair.
