Briton may harvest surprise bumper crop of vintage Spitfire fighters in Myanmar
By Associated Press
YANGON, Myanmar — As many as 140 World War II Spitfire fighter planes — three to four times the number of airworthy models known to exist — are believed to be buried in near-pristine condition in Myanmar. A British-Myanmar partnership says it will begin digging them up by the end of the month.
