Lett, I'm blown away at all of your finds. I would have a hard time keeping down a job if I lived there. I'd be out MDing all the time 
Thanks for the comments! 
Yes, its hard to find places where planes are fallen, many planes are blown up and parts are in very big radius.
If the plane is fallen on the ground, then the engine can be in the ground for up to 6-8m.

Lett do you bring home those tank parts you find? I imagine there would be parts that are needed for restorations that are as rare as hens teeth.
Stay safe.

Hi, yeah, I do bring the tank details home, clean and fix them a bit (I do not do full restoration because these details really are rare and old) and then offer these parts to those who might be interested in buying them.
