Just saw the article about the discovery of what is believed to be the last of its kind... intact. It does supposedly contain the bodies of the crew still though. What do you guys think of it, and what do you think should be done with it?

I was just about to post this here. :Smile)

Amazing she is the last of her kind. I can't believe all these rare warplanes were scraped and not put in museums. I hope this is brought to the surface and kept in a museum where she belongs for others to see.

Hi,

If the bodies are still in there, then I would like to see it stay.

If by some slim chance there are no remains, then by all means raise it.

The British government has actually spent much money over the years in restoring and preserving historical aircraft, which I appreciate.
