British experts looking for a cache of World War II Spitfire planes believed to be buried in Burma say they have discovered a crate.
The team has lowered a camera into the crate in the Kachin state capital Myitkyina, but says muddy water has stopped them identifying the contents.
Project leader David Cundall described the development as "very encouraging".
The team believes that more than 120 unused Spitfires could be buried in sites across Burma.
