U.S. WWII fighter plane found on coast of Wales
"Dana M. Hague" d(dash)m(dash)hague(at)comcast(dot)net wrote in message ... Just as amusing is the statement "It still has a lot of high-octane fuel onboard, so it's important that the public doesn't go near it," as if high octane fuel is somehow more dangerous than low octane fuel... Unless they're concerned about the lead, which I doubt. What fuel? "On September 27, 1942, fuel exhaustion during a training mission forced 2nd Lt Robert Fred Elliot to land the large twin-engine fighter in shallow water on the beach." http://www.dailypost.co.uk/news/nort...5578-20072078/
