Lancaster PA411 RAF; Lightning P38J 42-67207 Revisit 2

Lightning Crash Site Tintwistle

Lancaster Crash Site Tintwistle

 













Side note on the weekend's revisit of Tintwistle Knarr crash sites: some of them seem to have been "decorated" with assorted irrelevant crap, as you can see in the pics. This is something I'm seeing increasingly frequently. 

At least one of the painted rocks appears to be to do with some kind of army veteran's mental health charity. Maybe they all are, but I'm still not really seeing the relevance to an air force war grave. Ditto the Ukrainian flag at the Lightning site. The pilot and aircraft were American, not Ukrainian.

Incidentally, I noted a small secondary wreckage pile at the Lancaster site: 

Location: SK 03494 99223
