Indeed, the American way should be the only way. We were recently informed by the local authorities in the province of Friesland that our request to have Lancaster ED603 recovered has been rejected. Their excuse was the usual RNethAF propaganda (wargrave, respect etc.) but the real reason is (as always): money. There are three officially missing crewmembers still in the wreckage. If it was an American aircraft the result would be much different.
