I would think it is quite possible that they have remains from several Bf 110 crash sites. But the question is, how many parts, and in what condition should the parts be in to be worth listing? Ca 3000 aircraft crashed in Norway during WWII, and let's say that an undercarriage leg and some twisted metall is all that is worth sawing, should that recovery be listed with a separate W.Nr?

This is a problem I've been struggling with, when should something recovered deserve an entry of it's own in a list of preserved aircraft? May be recoveries that only yields parts for other restorations shouldn't be listed?

There are projects at recovering Bf 110 bits and pieces and also Bf 109 parts have been recovered and another Bf 109 project (except the one in Sola) is currently being undertaken. So it's a very exciting country for WWII aircraft.
