This wreckage is less than a couple of miles off one of the most popular long distance paths in the uk. Many thousands of people have walked by here not aware of its presence.
Went out for a walk today to visit the crash site of a US military B29 The plane crashed in 1948, the pilot thought he was over Lincolnshire, a flat area of the UK, in fact he was over the Dark Peak. The cloud level was down to 2000' and Jame's Thorn on Bleaklow below him rises to 2059'. All 13 of the American servicemen sadly perished on the desolate mountain. There are in fact 55 crash sites in the Dark Peak area, this being on of the better preserved ones. Not far from this spot are two other crash sites, one a Lancaster bomber, the other a Dakoter. Very little remains of these two aircraft.
For anyone who is interested i have posted pics of the site on my profile.

Have you tried a mallet?
