-Interesting to note that the Russian language extended caption uses the term 'enemy forces'. Still a lot of hatred out there I think.

-I don't know if this is old news - but I visited the Zadorozhni museum in 2007 and they had this Me-109G awaiting restoration....
It was on display in 2008.....
Is this Facebook report a different, new, discovery?

Still some mystery on its actual loss the 1942 incident was not 100% and aircraft repaired

-Seeing the condition of this recent find, makes me wonder if they'll find the Hampden that was accidentally shot down by Soviet fighter's, and ditched into a lake, and if they do find it, will it be in the same kind of condition.

Interesting to see the 109 sported Dunlop tires. What's up with that?

-Hi All,
DH2EH - Don't thank me I just thought as the OP hadn't the time that I had, I thought I would just try to be helpful to the OP and all the pictures are all courtesy of :- http://www.facebook.com/wingsofvicto...53906318060525 :eagerness:
But every time news of these recoveries get aired it just makes me wonder what else is at the bottom of lakes across Europe, especially what was the eastern front it's not unimaginable there may be some extinct types just waiting to be discovered that have been quietly lying hidden in plain site ?
The problem I see is whether or not whoever wants to invest time and money into any of these projects far easier ways to waste cash than actually retrieving old aircraft wrecks as some would see them sadly.....:rolleyes:

-Yes, Dunlop rubber products were produced in Germany during WWII. The same with licensed production of other items, such as Eclipse starters etc. I do not know if any payments went back to the parent companies but, I expect that all payments ceased after declaration of war.
