While researching something else I stumbled across this web site[URL=http://home.st.net.au/~dunn/quarry.htm[/URL]
(If the link fails look up Archerfield Quarry on Google).
I know lots of US-built Lease/Lend a/c and spares were dumped at sea from RN carriers at the end of the war so perhaps some land-based aircraft were bulldozed in as more economical than shipping them back to the USA?
Hmm... how much WD40 to get a waterlogged Stuka running? <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
