WW2 Plane Crash Wreck Hunting

[gshughes]

I know there are quite a few plane spotters here (Eric Mc being the top dog ?!- I am a bit of an enthusiast too, but like cars better !

Thought there might however be some mild interest in this site which has been going for a while outlining the exploits of my cousin and his mate who "collect" mainly WW2 plane wrecks - I have only seen one myself, the remains of the Wellington that came down on Goat Fell on the Isle of Arran.

It is a very poignant subject, and don't worry they treat these remains, many of which are war graves, with the due respect they demand.

I guess that is a no then !

Scuba enthusiasts might like to have a look at the heroic failures bit, they dived in a scottish loch in Feb to try and find a reputed wreck at the bottom - only one problem, the regulator froze and dumped all the air! Brave, or more likely stupid.

I don't think I want to know, but why is he called Flash...?

Just noticed that this thread is still alive. His name is Dave Gordon, hence Flash. Highly original eh !?
