Burma Spitfires Merged thread. Put all new info in here please.

yeah, I remember hearing that story, and I remember being told that as they started digging they actually went through them: they had managed to locate them with radars, but albeit having preserved the original shape, the aluminium had deteriorated so much over the years that they were unsalvageable.

This time we're talking about crated and preserved stuff, not just wrapped and buried.
