Great!!! 
How nice when another history piece is recovered and preserved.
Always amazing seeing "salvage" images...and, if I well understood, is the only one remaining in the World, isn't it?
Thanks for the link!

Hopefully this wont be destroyed by "over restoring" like the rest of the recovered planes here in norway; remove all original paint and finnish, replace so much of the original body that its 50% new materials used:-( I wish that hey would preserve more of recovered planes in the state that they are found when the condition is as good as seen here. But I guess that this will end up like the rest....

I would like to see it brought here to the US and have Paul Allens team restore it to flyable condition.
