On page B5 of The Press (Christchurch) today 19 Oct. is an article about 
David Cundill a Lincolnshire farmer, who after a search of 16 years has 
located 124 unused Spitfires which were preservative treated and buried in 
their transport crates around August 1945, in Myanmar. He has signed an 
agreement with the Myanmar Gov't to dig up 20 or more of the aircraft.
