Interesting. ANyone care to guess what kind of aircraft were all

"bombed-up"? lol.

Sounds like something out of a Clive Cussler 'Dirk Pitt' novel.


If so, probably some Ju-87's and perhaps Me-110's. He-111's perhaps,
though probably less likely..
Stukas were still getting lots of work in the anti-tank role right up to
the end of th war.
Rudel still flying them in the last days, so a good chance that if
there are indeed 'bombed up' (or not) aircraft stashed down there, a
good chance
some of them are Ju-87's.

Anything turbine powered would've been spirited back to the Rodina
pronto, so I wouldn't
be hopeful about Me-262's or Arados.
