"It is better to be down here, wishing you were up there, than up here wishing you were down there."
Even the instruments are still there, that is a fixer upper for sure!
As I can't read the comments (Polish? Czeck?), can anyone advise where this was found? I see "Saharze" or something like (Sahara desert I presume), but whereabouts exactly? Does it say what if anything is proposed to be done with it?

That's pretty cool. Could be north Africa ?
Awesome find
That's so neat to see! I wonder what the story behind it is....
I sure hope they rescued the pilot. What a horrible fate, to be lost in the trackless wastes of the Sahara Desert.

I was just reading this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Be_Good_(aircraft) and thought the same thing.
It was found in the Sahara. Third picture - possibly two small caliber exit holes? Very cool.
At some point parts were separated from the aircraft by people after it was on the ground. Presumably the pilot was rescued. Or presumably recovery efforts have begun on the a/c.
