I'm sure some of you may have seen pictures of the P-40 wreck that were recently posted up in various places and the ensuing discussions is it real/is it CGI. Although the photos had a slightly surreal air to them I thought it was the real thing and this set of images confirm that it is indeed a long lost P-40. peebeep |

The shifting sands of time? Fascinating that so much of the paint/markings is still on it. |

It's now made the mainstream press http://www.telegraph.co.uk/history/world-war-two/9257499/WWII-plane-found-frozen-in-time-deep-in-the-Sahara.html I hope the intention of the RAFM to recover it for display comes to fruition. An interesting diorama project perhaps - hmmm ... Edited by MikeC, May 11 2012, 06:58 AM.
