Do-17 wreck found intact

I wish them the best of luck in raising her and when she goes on display at the RAF museum at Hendon, rest assured I will go there with a camera. |

Wow, great News.
The only thing they had up to now was a small Piece from the Tail, as far as i know. So this Do17 is really unique. I wish someone made it flyable in Cliffs of Dover. |

We'll add it to the itinary for the 2011 subsim meet. Although I doubt she'd be ready for some five years even if she was raised today.

That's an awesome find they made, hopefully it'll be as good as they claim it to be.

I think it was actually found last year, but now they've got these really good images of it. Would indeed be great to raise it!
