Muschu
Island
Wreckage of Beaufighter
There is the scattered wreckage and tell tale indicators
of a high speed impact crash in the interior of the island. Although
there is not much wreckage left, there are parts of the engines
of a twin engine aircraft.
Of interesting
note is the fact that the props are unbent and apparently undamaged,
despise the violence of the crash that left no large pieces of
wreckage. This fact indicates the engines on impact hit under
full power, and were thus froze when they hit. The props were
buried deep in the ground, and each blade was fragmented from
the jolt of hitting the ground.
