Re: New Ju88 wreck found
Nice photos.
I've no reason to think these are not real. The paint has been protected by the forest and cold weather.
Having seen the state of preservation of the Fw190A, Fw189, Me110E, P40C from the tundra - this looks as good. Only magnesium and water do not mix and will cuase these to corrode/disappear - hence no cam covers. Aluminium is generally fine unless moisture has a place to become trapped and evaporates/condenses due to cold/hot weather.
Shame the W.Nr on the fin (touch of white) is not readable otherwise we could work out its loss.
