I am investigating a USAAF C47 crash in 1944 near Guildford, Surrey, UK for local history/commemoration purposes. I have done some limited exploratory surface metal detecting to try to pin point the crash site and found a few items that I believe come from the aircraft. I attach photos of two items, which are both aluminium (despite the orange tint), which I hope perhaps someone might be able to identify for me.
Photo 010 seems to be some form of operating arm and retains its dark green finish.
Photo 014 might be a âTâ section of airframe with seemingly a curved cut out on the right side.
