I expect the aircraft has been identified in the past, and is documented somewhere ? If aviation archaeologists were interested in the site,
they’ve had 70 odd years to carry out any investigations.

They were looking around the crash site of an He III. I don’t see a problem. Over the years the site has no
doubt been stripped of anything interesting. It’s apparently not a war grave, so is now a pile of scrap metal.

Yes, a Happy Christmas to everyone, and a thank you for all of the interesting stories and information posted.
Also a big thank you for all of the lovely photographs.

I use the Tamron 18-400 Jon. It’s very good, a great travel lens.

Being able to paint pictures of that quality is certainly a gift.
A few years ago I was talking to an elderly chap who lives just up the road from me. He paints for his own
pleasure and let me have a look at them. They were all beautiful paintings, but he has never sold any, and
very few people have seen them. I couldn’t help thinking that it was a wasted talent.

Maybe the OP “Sicobra”, would like to make a comment ?

I also recall the AEL engineering manager at that time Bill Borrowman had a Framed old style Pound note on his wall and was marked SOLD 1 Bristol Britannia G-AOVT for a £1

That was indeed the case. (You must know my brother in law, Ted Williams ? )

I wasn’t that keen on the film “Life”. Rather like an updated version of Alien.
