The body of a pilot found in France (05/04/2006) Its plane, Messerschmitt 109, was six meters under ground HAZEBROUCK the body of the pilot of a German plane of the Second World war was found Tuesday with six meters under ground, in the medium of the remains of its apparatus, close to Hazebrouck, in the north of France. "the plane, Messerschmitt 109, underwent an enormous impact and is completely dislocated, but the parts were protected from corrosion by clay. What is particularly moving, it is that the pilot who was with the device controls finds at the same place "and started to be exhumed, declared Yves Maner, director of a Center of history and memory. "the apparatus was tiny room in crumbs, but the metal of the parts is still brilliant", it added. The excavations, organized by Air France, aimed at finding the body of Jan Plesman, the son of the founder of the airline company KLM Dutchwoman, cut down in the area into 1944 with the orders of a plane of the Royal British Air Force. "a data in the files and testimonys made us think that one had located his apparatus under the ground", according to M. Maner, which ensures however to have "other tracks" to find the Dutch pilot. The body of the German pilot should be buried with the German military cemetery of Andilly (Is) except if it were clearly identified and that its family could be found, specified M. Maner. The most interesting parts of the apparatus should be cleaned and preserved.

The story - interesting.Good find.

davparlr · 08-09-2006, 01:58 PM

I hope they can identify the pilot. He should finally go home.

DerAdlerIstGelandet · 08-09-2006, 02:21 PM

Amazing, I am glad they found another one and he will finally get laid to rest.

I dont care what side they fought for, all missing soldiers deserve to be found and come home....German, US, British, Italian, Japanese, etc...

to them all.

As for the aircraft they are found all over here still believe it or not. The airfields that we use today for our helicopters were all former WW2 German luftwaffe airbases and they excavate during construction and find underground bunkers and hangers with planes still sitting on there landing gear.

Pisis · 08-10-2006, 07:56 AM

That is fascinating.
