The wreck has re emerged over the Bank Holiday weekend and received much publicity which is not good. The wreck to to the South west of the fort but Haille sands is notoriously difficult and dangerous to reach with a shallow creek to cross to get to it. Once the tide turns that creek fills up rapidly, the only way out is to head for Tetney marshes where there are hidden pockets of quicksands en route. In short if you value your life dont go there.

Re the tallboy bomb, I discovered the remains of this on the marsh in the late 1960s  deep in a gully, it was only the rear of the bomb not the warhead which would have probably have sunk very deep into the mud . It appeared to be constructed of plywood and was rotting away. One of 617 Sqdns  Lancasters did land North Coates whilst operating off the nearby Theddletthorpe bombing range and I understand that was in connection with the loss of a practice Talllboy although there is no mention in the 617 ORB or the North Coates ORB There was also a Beaufighter undercarriage leg and wheel not far away

Shame this appears to be true but as Scampton which was once earmarked to become a flying museum site is about to close in the near future would this be a contender for a new base for the cold war jets?

Photographs of the Ryan PT 22 shown to the appeared to be the nearest

The Mercury is going away soon for the rebuild and unlikely to return to North Coates for at least 6 months or more

Hi guys
I have a Firestreak nose identical to the photogrpah. It came my way via the family of a deceased friend around 18 months ago. Its currently sat in my garden shed overlooking my Koi pond by the way and is available to whoever wants it. Contact me via the North Coates Flying club web site contact page and I will send a photos. Binbrook 74 this sounds very much like the one you have lost as I understand it originated from Binbrook originally

I can confirm M-62A comments. I have been at North Coates for the last twenty four years and salt air corrosion has never been an issue and we have plenty of metal aircraft.

I used to have apiece of molten aluminum from the crash site of an Airspeed Oxford, it was in a perfect heart shape. The aircraft crashed in South Aftrica and my father was in the recovery team, he brought it back with him at the end of the war.
Sadly it was lost some years ago, probably in a house move
