I honestly thought it referred to the conflict between the archaeologists and the Burmese government; the gubernatorial/archaeologistical fracas.

It looks they might at last start digging in the right place (where they originally found a crate), and not miles away at another location as they have been doing. No wonder the press all went home.

They wont mess around out there they will kick them out if the rumour mongers continue as they are.

Its just a sign of the times that if there's no instant gratification the knives come out and this story seems to go with that trend, if it were 20 years ago we would know little about it until it was all over and a statement issued in the press, lets hope the forum trolls and press hogs all leave them to get on with what they went there to do without acting like a bunch of kids "I want I want I want" .

I sincerely hope they find something related to the RAF I just don't hold much hope for brand new crated wrapped in grease serviceable Spitfires, I guess I can hope though :)

you could shove over all your money to me, I guarantee you 25% - p.a.
If it doesnt work out you still can hope, though.

You're being had.

Posted by the Burma Spitfire team on FB on 11 2 13:

"Hi all, so things are apparently progressing pretty well, albeit at a fairly glacial speed. Because it's a working airport, the team need to work during quiet periods, which means a total of 1-2 hours a day. They are also having to dig by hand, due to the sensitive nature of the area they are digging, so there's little progress made each day. On top of this, the licence to dig needs to be reapplied for each and every single day. Seriously. So there's still a lot of work ahead. We appreciate that the info we are able to provide is pretty patchy and incomplete. It's frustrating for everyone. However, there are very good reasons we can't currently provide as much background info as perhaps we would like. This is just how things have to play out at the moment. For what it's worth, David remains really positive he'll get the result we are all hoping for."
