Welcome to the
AIRCRAFT RECOVERY PAGE
We will remember them.
Please remember
recovery picture's are original and subject to copyright. If you wish to use them
contact me and I will seek the permission of the team.
The recoveries are carried out in a
professional way by a small team of experienced aircraft archaeologists using
currently accepted practises. The team are at all times respectful of the
aircrew, that is a primary factor. All recoveries are legal in all respects licensed by the MOD and in
agreement with the land owner and any other concerned authorities. In the UK
there are very strict rules surrounding recoveries, no aircraft with either
human remains or ordnance is licensed. Where ever possible a memorial is left on
or near the excavated site if aircrew lost their lives
