Up here in Alaska we *had* alot of WW-2 aircraft, but most of them have been recovered in the last 15 years.List includes:P-51Bx2, P-40Ex3, P-38, PBY Catalina, B-17, P-39, and I believe a P-36.Most of them are either lend-lease aircraft that crashed near Fairbanks, or aircraft that were being ferried out to Dutch Harbor. Now they are getting harder to find, the airframes are getting overgrown or they sink into swamps, ect.I eat, sleep, and deam of killing yaks.Then again, when do I sleep, I'm always killing them!

Russian aircraft require skill to fly.
German aircraft require ten times that skill, and one hundred times the patience!
