I agree that the database idea would be worthwhile too.

I'm glad to hear you think so. I finally visited NZ277 (That Oxford missing for 30 years) and so that is another for the list. Sadly TATAM was closed at the time so I will have to wait a while before I can get pictures of the recovered parts from NZ277, the Anson and the Ventura. When I do visit hopefully I'll be able to get leads on the two P-51s at Tongaporutu and a Vampire in Wanganui (I believe NZ5723). That would leave it at 14 sites for the list.

Was that the two Mustangs that crashed in December 1953?

Yes, I've been able to narrow the area for those two down but not enough. TATAM has the engine, prop, tail wheel etc. off NZ2411 so I figure they'll have info for that site and the nearby (and seemingly more preserved) NZ2404.

Little update, I'm reorganising my Flickr and am thinking of making that account soley Lego photos, so stuff like my aviation photos would be deleted and reuploaded elsewhere, presumably an account tied to another email as they do not take kindly to alt accounts heh...anyways was just wondering would that cause issues with the imbedded photos here? Would they stay visible but with the source not visible, or would they break entirely? In that case I would have to link to a new album of something.

Yes, you would need to edit your posts here and substitute in the new links. Otherwise the original photos will vanish with nothing to link to.
