Following the above post I have discovered that Geoff Nutkins of Shoreham Aircraft Museum did NOT carry out any excavations at the crash site.

It would appear that an unknown individual misrepresented his own identity or who he was working with/for when he carried out this recovery and led the farmer to believe that he was either Geoff Nutkins or was working for his museum. I now understand that this is not the first time this has happened.

I wanted to set the record straight having been misinformed, unknowingly, by the landowner concerned who was clearly duped.
