Welcome to Simon Parry's aviation
archaeology site. Here we hope to tell you about some of the
recent excavations that have been carried out in Europe and
to provide useful links to web based resources.
Countless aircraft fell to earth during World War 2, many
more crashed at other times, but remarkably few of the crash
sites were accurately documented. Throughout Europe and indeed
the rest of the World, enthusiasts have been gathering information
about aircraft crashes in their regions from eye-witnesses
before the stories are lost for ever. Mostly the wreckage
of crashed aircraft were taken away at the time or salvaged
for scrap, but occasionally it has been possible to recover
of the remains of a crashed aircraft. Depending upon the significance
and condition of the parts recovered, items found recently
have been displayed in museums or have been used in restoration
projects.
If you know of an excavated an aircraft, or want your link
added to the links page, please use the contact details tab.
