Airframes · 03-22-2009, 01:12 PM

You can enter the model Daniel, but we might draw the line at entering the wreckage.....!!

Lucky13 · 03-22-2009, 02:55 PM

If he wants to build a wreckage, I say that we'll let him. Question is though, has he got the guts to do it???

Wayne Little · 03-22-2009, 03:40 PM

Build it and crash it....no problem!

109ROAMING · 03-23-2009, 01:11 AM

You guys could help fund my search efforts...I could find it then I could build accurate wreckage of it?

I just need a helicopter and some fuel

Wayne Little · 03-23-2009, 04:54 AM

Wake up Daniel, wake up.....you're dreaming again.....

Lucky13 · 03-23-2009, 04:57 AM

Need to step out of the garage more often son....all those fumes from the glue and paint can't be good for you....you're hallucinating, again!

lesofprimus · 03-23-2009, 05:04 AM

109ROAMING · 03-23-2009, 09:52 AM

Helicopter + fuel + pilot + time = Corsair found

Knew I forgot something! Dammit....

Airframes · 03-23-2009, 01:02 PM

I can provide a helicopter and pilot Daniel, no problem. Will an Airfix Sea King do?!!
On a more serious note - do you have 'Google Earth' coverage for the region where the Corsair went in? It might (only might!) give some clues, if you know what to look for.

109ROAMING · 03-23-2009, 01:27 PM

Yup got google earth been on it quite abit ,not yielding much so far...

Been in the area many a time (Got relatives living up and down the west coast)

All going well ,me and a couple mates will start searching later this year

Airframes · 03-23-2009, 01:46 PM

Sounds good. Keep us updated. If you get any clues, see if you can get some funding from somewhere to help narrow the search. Maybe a museum, the RNZAF or similar might be able to assist, or a wealthy business man!?
Worth trying, but only when you have something really tangible.

109ROAMING · 03-23-2009, 01:56 PM

Of course ,Will be mostly me walking the land though so may be a while if anything at all does get found

People willing to volunteer their time is the best thing

All in good time
