Shifting sands reveal World War Two fighter plane lost for 65 years
For 65 years, this Second World War fighter had lain hidden under the surface of a beach where it crash-landed.
Just a short distance above it, holidaying families have built sandcastles, strolled and swum, all unaware of its existence.
But now the P-38 Lightning has re-emerged after freak weather conditions caused the sands to shift and expose its rusting frame.
The U.S. aircraft – with its distinctive “twinboom” design – was discovered on the North Wales coast, but the location is being kept secret in case it is targeted by looters.
