P40 Kitthawk found in Sahara

[Cody Coyote]

Saw an item this morning that a WWII Kittyhawk was found crashed in the Sahara. The plane is in relatively good shape and the pilot apparently survived (for a while anyway).

Sorry, can't post a link from my mobile but maybe someone can search for it and update this post with the url.

Thanks for the links guys, it was eerie seeing the inside of the cockpit and panel almost pristine. I hope they find the pilot's remains and bring him home
