They're getting the funeral they deserve. But I'm still amazed it took so long to find them!

As I put in the post Bass did abut this:

Nice for the families to now be able to bury their loved ones. However, lost in a forest 10 km from civilisation for 70 years.....Brings into perspective the problems finding a Boeing 777 in the pacific Ocean/Indian Ocean........?

Amazing who easy it is to lose big things on this small planet.......

Given the dense bush in that area and even more dense back then, before the forestry got in there and cut the trees. It dosn't supprise me that they just found them now taking into consideration the colour of the plane. My guess is there will be more found over the years as they clear the trees. Last year they found a float plane near the same area that had been missing for 25 years. Hunters I think.
