I happen to find this on another fourm while reserching this I can't think that this was legal if they really did it.
"My husband's family owned the property adjacent to Hendrick's Field, now Sebring Airport (but not at the time of the crash).
My husband's father worked at Hendrick's Field when the crash occurred.
When clearing the land several years ago, they came across not one, but two different crashed B17 bombers. With the heavy equipment, they dug a hole and buried both of them.
I believe the property the B17 crash site you are showing in the photos is part of the swamp land they sold. There had been a sod farm on that property."
