That wouldn't surprise me Kymmy, in other words "don't believe the hype", I remember reading a story a few months ago about an old plane that was found partially buried somewhere remote but due to the publicity it attracted, it soon became a target for thieves and was subsequently stripped for all it's worth.

I thought it was possible that even if they had found these missing spitfires after all these years, can you imagine how much they could be worth, so it would be a good idea to throw people off the scent, for what it's worth I only tend to believe what I see with my own eyes .
