Buried aircraft parts

This looks very interesting, would love to get my hands on some of this stuff. Apologies if it has been covered in another thread but I didn’t see it.

Cheers Paul

Normal?

Maybe he means £’s ?

I find it much easier the normal way, with £’s. My experience has been that the abnormal way is a real problem. Nobody ever has the right change for dustbin lids or hubcaps these days.

Buried parts

If you look at the attached photo,in the background amongst the trees is an air raid shelter.There were also a lot of small mounds which may or may not contain parts.Waiting for someone with a metal detector to investigate!! I cannot as I am overseas!Site is the North western end of Oakington.There was also a fire dump at the west end of the runway (now dug up and gone!Worked as a civvie at Brooklands site Little Staughton(near St Neots)and all the duff stuff was thrown behind the hangar there and there was quite a mound of parts there,worth a look if you can get to it!

Hi Matt, what are the prices they may go for, have you a pricey list?

I would imagine pricing would be in the region of what Lanc FN turret parts would be…..;)

We go back to dig out more next weekend, it will be the ‘Outcasts’ Xmas party digfest, still a few tickets left….

pm sent Bird Dog old chap!
