A few years back I posted a thread about the recovery of a fw190A-8 of JG54 back in 1995 when we found the complete port wing, engine, cockpit parts etc. Now the frustrating part of the story...:facepalm:

We received news that in that same area the starboard wing was found last summer...by some guys who were looking for old coins. They found it almost 400 meters from our recovery site! We never ever questioned ourselfs to look that far from the actual crash site. The sad bit is that the guys who found it know that we have this a/c in our museum and are trying to get a lot of money for it...hopefully our negotiation skills will see the starboard wing find its way to our museum. How cool would that be...seeing the compete wing span of a 190 reunited with the rest of the a/c.

We are trying hard...but we are not in the same galaxy on the price . Their initial offer closely to 5 digits:shock::shock:
Like any negotiation that's just the opening "hope we get them to pay it" price. It should come down a bunch if you play hardball...
