Hi,
This story is good news.However I went on to read that SOME of them would be returning to the UK under a joint preservation project with Burma.
Some of them ? These planes are the property of the British Government.All of them should be brought back.

Anyone remember these other great finds: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...issing+marines

I am curious to see how this one will end. Assuming they find the planes, I doubt they will be in as good condition as they hope.

Maybe they will give them all back if the British museum hands also back all the various archeological finds it has taken from various countires over the years ? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...m-opening.html

Perhaps they will sell them to get themselves out of the mess they are currently in.i do agree we should hand back stuff pilfered from various country's.I do belive the nose from the sphinx is in the London
museum.
It is totally possible that these planes are in perfect condition being wrapped in grease and the boxes sealed with wax.what an addition to the museum at duxford.

Collector protocall wold normally say that they would devalue the find if they un crate and build them
