Catfish Member Registered: 06/26/09 Posts: 1081 Loc: Where the ocean meets the sky	Maybe a model, but the stones and erosion marks are real, and they are surely not from Mars. From a geologist's view this is what you find in desert regions; they may still have placed a faked model in such surroundings, but really: What for ? There must be hundreds of planes from WW2 or wherever lie around in the north african deserts and this looks like one, simple as that. Greetings, Catfish

Wheels It crashed over 100 miles from civilization from what I read, the suspected pilot is considered to be a war casualty. They think he got no further than 20 miles of the crash site. _________________________ l'Audace, toujours l'audace I don’t have pet peeves; I have major, psychotic hatreds. - George Carlin Even if you have a crown and sit at a throne In the end you will have nothing Even if you are destined for great riches In the end you will return to the dust

Copping is believed to have survived the landing before dying in the desert. He was reported missing and presumed dead at the time; the plane he was ferrying for repairs was written off as lost." http://news.nationalpost.com/2012/05/11/...found-in-egypt/ More Photos _________________________ Rabbits, break right and climb.
