Is it the pilot? Bones and a parachute found near eerily preserved plane that crashed in Sahara desert 70 years ago
The 12 human bones were found on some rocks three miles from the wreckage
A piece of parachute and a metal button dated 1939 were found nearby
Flight Sergeant Dennis Copping crashed at the spot in 1942, and is thought to have wandered off into the desert
The perfectly preserved plane was found earlier this year by Polish oil exploration workers
Well done Wobbler. Your posts are like panning for gold. Mostly fucking mud, but on occasion, Eureka!

Geeuz, is that thing real? You could have a game of indoor cricket in that thing. Hitting the pilot is 6 and out though...

hahaha, No wonder the ads are so long... with all those refuelling stops. Not to mention the reason they're going broke!

That last one is a render. Look in the back of the missiles. (Still a pic and still cool, though)

Yeah it's very typical of the type of art work you find on a box for a model kit. It is available as a poster.
