Hi
Was it that website or AAW that discussed the sunked AR-196’s in the russian ? lake.
I never heard anymore about them, but the, I suppose if it was a more well known type they would have been recovered.
cheers

Can’t recall if it is still part of the WIX archives or not, as it became the WWW Refugee forum for some time after that.

I have a feeling that someone kept the contents of that forum before it was lost. No idea who though!

Yes those definitely were the days – presumably everything on the forum was lost – it would have been fun to read it all again
I recall some gems – including the source of the Chinese Stirling story – which started out as discussion about Stirlings and whether anything survived from the crash of Belgian Stirling V (OO-XAC, ex-PK172) which crashed during operations in Kunming, China in the late 1940s.
I also remember discussions about the existence or otherwise of Spitfire Vs flown by the Chinese PLAAF……..
