Next dig in three weeks, the site is five times bigger than this & the Geofizz results are just incredible in comparison to this mini site. I have cleaned up some parts today ready for sale other items will be left in their original condition for the buyer to clean & restore as they see fit.

We found lots of these, P-51 panels & stubs, there were also I'm sure some new B-6 control column stick tops in an ammo can which as yet I cannot find....

Sorry, I don't really understand your question? When you state 'involvment on all this?' As in so much as

i.) Why did they want to film it?
ii.) What are they paying me & why?
iii.) How did they initially find out about it?
iv.) How much did they film & how long for?
v.) Why would it or me be of interest to them?

Can you be more specific with your question as it's a bit ambigious & difficult for me to answer with any accuracy else I might go to great lengths to explain what I think the answer is only to discover that it's not what you were asking me. :)
