Stirling fuselage section.

Posted by PeterA on Sat Sep 28, 2002 10:25:11 AM

Whilst in France yesterday, as guest digger on a 'Battle of France' recovery, with pilot in attendance, for British TV, a local(ish) museum was gathering a few post dig spoils for display. I was surprised to learn from a senior representative of the museum that they had a 9 metre section of Stirling fuselage at or destined for their museum at Vraux.
Big heavies are not my specialist subject and I assume this is well known, but if not........
(Paul, It was not as Spitfire.)
