I am sorry but that is an obvious fake. I have watched Jurrasic Park a couple of times and I know that he should be using a brush at this point, not a trowel.
 
So that's what's in all those crates, no wonder why the British didn't want the Japanese to get it!
 
I could have continued with aircraft-related names, but kept it Short.
Something along the lines of - " ....the specialists from the archaeology department at Oxford, following advice from a professor of soil mechanics from Harvard, have suggested that the recorded images from the ground-mapping radar could be Phantom returns. However, Dr. Armstrong Whitworth, from Stirling Research Foundation in Sunderland, has offered to send his specialist consultant, Pete Whitley, to view the site before the weather changes, as a Whirlwind, coming from the Rangoon region, is expected to arrive with Lightning speed, and will be a real Devastator." Etc, etc, etc ........
 
Good stuff,thanks.

Interesting that the Australians thought that they had to seek permission to dispose of the Spitfires,probably because they hadn't paid for them.

This passage caught my eye.



No market! Imagine what those aircraft and parts would be worth today.

Cheers
