Bf110 crash site being dug today near Bristol

After a several hours conservation today this is the same artifact

Now that really is a nice find – precision indeed!

Sorry, Ian, I take back my flippant comment. I should have looked more closely at that relic!

A precision recovery

Like it! 😀

Have seen one or two recovered DB601s (109 and 110) built by Henschel. MAN were another maker.

A nice find, though! Should have the engine number stamped into the reverse.

lovely bit and very rare Henschel? Badge. Henschel made DB?

A precision recovery from under tarmac, after some very serious organising. Some interesting bits amongst some very burned remains. And it was the best bit!

I hope that’s not the best bit!

Grapevine working fairly well, with the exception that it happened yesterday.

Yes I believe that is the one, sorry for the confusion, It was always known localy as the ‘Fishpond’s’ Bf110, although I dont know the exact crash site location.
