Another Spitfire question

Posted by Cees Broere on Wed Jan 15, 2003 09:33:45 AM

But it never bores so here it goes.

Some years ago there were rumours in the UK aviation press that several Spitfires (I believe six airframes) had been buried at Mingeladon airfield in Burma (Myanmar)during or after the war.

Later there were reports suggesting the rumour to be true but that an important eye-witness at the time had lost contact etc. etc. I remember reading an advertisment in FP asking the eye-witness or person with the exact information to reply.

Now, nothing has been heard but does anyone have further information on this story, Peter?

Cheers
