Mick,
One recovery I know for sure is a Wellington which crashed near Wilnis with two crewmembers still aboard. This one is scheduled for february 2002 (after 10 years of struggling by public organisations).
Others are not known by me at the moment but there is a list of about ten aircraft which have priority to be recovered. But when they start digging is not known. I sometimes think this list is only for PR-purposes and gets dusted off everytime a journalist from abroad starts asking questions (preferrably with a tv-camera).
Apart from that we have another two of which we are hoping that they will be recovered by them next year or so (Stirling N3654 with six missing and the IJsselmeer Lancaster DV286 with five missing).
Cheers
Cees
