Thanks Mikael,

The airframe looks very substantial, and even in its present conditon would make an impressive display, it would at least ensure its preservation instead of leaving it lying there.

Personally I cannot understand that certain wrecks are "preserved" where they crashed because this is just a temporary measure until the wreck corrodes into nothing. At least these wrecks should be placed under cover. I know that costs is a great issue but with enthusiasm and a lot of hard work a lot can be done.
