I read this on a missing person website.”does anyone know the name of the pilot of Vampire WG871which crashed 17/3/52(actually went missing,in Malaya),pilot missing presumed dead,well I have found the wreck”This was entered onto the website in 2003!!
This was covered on the forum at the time as it was then thought to be the first sighting of the wreckage since the aircraft was declared missing. See here:

Since that time, I have been in contact with the poster of that message and, along with her father, have visited the sight of the wreck on two occassions. Hopefully, an article, based on my research into Flt Sgt Wojceichowski’s Polish and RAF service, that I have submitted to our favourite aviation history magazine will be published in the near future.

Was not initially clear in your post, thought you were claiming to have found the Vampire! From my searching, I understood that the aircraft was found on 6/2/1999 by natives deep in the jungle.:confused:
