An RAF Odiham Chinook was called in to help recover the remaining wreckage of a Stirling Bomber from its WWII crash site in the Peak District.

The Stirling Bomber, Serial Number LK628, crashed during a training exercise in July 1944. All the 10 crew members on board survived.
All the 10 crew members on board survived.
What are the plans for the bomber?, Restoration?.
Its great to hear stories like this, a downed plane, crew survive and wreckage recovered for prosperity. Wonderful stuff.
 
All the wreckage is being stored in a hanger at RAF Wyton and they are looking at restoring what was recovered.
I will update when new information is available.
