Re: Kittyhawk Found in Sahara
Nick,
Think it is more than a passing interest. Media have been bombarding RAFM, Andy S, Peter A and myself as well as the surveyor who found (as part of a team) who discovered and posted the photos. I'll stick to my day job and do this as a hobby with an article at the end. News broke yesterday and in nearly all UK papers, BBC, ITN news, now CNN etc. Think there is a bit more than a passing interest. Only concern is they are talking about it being Copping's aircraft - evidence supports it but still have no serial (just squadron codes and other hints). It is gradually being stripped. Most loose items, radio, IFF, battery and all tags and ID plates have already gone. Lets hope it gets secured. Otherwise we are just going to have 100 photos and two videos as memories. regards Mark
