I don't know when or where, but the closed canopy suggests the pilot stayed
with his plane all the way.

Soviet WWII plane found with skeletons of crew

24.08.2015

The falling water level at an oxbow lake in Kamion, central Poland, has
revealed a WWII Soviet plane and the remains of the ill-fated crew that
perished in it.

The skeletons and their uniforms have already been removed, as have parts of
the plane.

“For now we have managed to find the instrument panel, the engine, a wheel
and a well-preserved radio station,” commented Zdzislaw Leszczynski,
director of the Museum of the River Vistula in Wyszogród, which is carrying
out the excavation together with the SAKWA association.

“Locals say the plane was shelled by German artillery and it plummeted [into
the water],” he added.

“The plane was so battered that it's impossible to determine which model it
is for the time being.”

The water level at the Bzura owbow lake has fallen dramatically owing to the
recent heatwave and lack of rain.

The remaining parts of the plane are due to be excavated next weekend.
