I'm just interested in any military related crashes from the WWII conflict. A few years back, I read about some planes discovered off the coast of Australia that had been dumped in the ocean after the war as a means of disposing them. Have you heard anything about them? I think it'd be neat to recover them and try to restore them for display purposes. I saw a show on television about Australian guy that has a Spitfire, a Oscar, and some other WWII planes. Do you know about him?

Also, where is North Queensland? Is it a northern state on the continent? (I don't know much about your provinces, just Australian music.) Well, it looks like I'm writing a book here. Type at you later.

Can anyone help me with more information?
