Interesting read and hopefully they are successful in recovering the British pilots remains for a proper burial. I find it amazing that finds like this are still being made 70 years after the event. BBC FIGHTER LINK

That is truly remarkable and the condition that the aircraft is in is fantastic after 70 yrs.
War is when your government tells you who the enemy is.
Revolution is when you figure it out for yourself.

I saw a video of a local actually walking up the glass canopy, pretty disgusting.
It looked like he was trying to determine how much weight the glass would bear before shattering.
Hopefully this craft can be removed before it is destroyed in place.
