They never saw it coming. But they were prepared to fight an underground airwar that never materialized. That Hitler was a brilliant thinker.

I always wanted an FW-190, and while we're at it, I'll take an ME-109. No problem. FlugWerk will hook you up. It's not cheap (about $600k, plus instruments and labour, or your time to build) but it is a real FW190 with a real FW WrkNr. Also, a syndicate in the US has 2 Me262s for sale. Seriously.
What would be interesting is if there is a restorable He111 there. The last flying Heinkel was destroyed recently (and the crew of two lost their lives).

Suddenly, not finding WMDs in Iraq after only 3 months doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore.

We're still finding WWII secrets and the press is concerned because we haven't completely searched Iraq yet.
In the 1960's US personnel found a secret tunnel system underneath the one we had already explored in Bavaria. It was located under the General Walker hotel. Workers in the tunnels noticed that water was leaking through the floor and broke through and found a whole new tunnel system.
When I was at Rhein Main Air Base in the early 80's the Germans found a huge underground storage area full of mustard gas at the main airport.
My wife and I used to ride our bikes through the forest areas and we frequently found openings to bunkers located in the middle of nowhere.
I'm sure there's a lot that we still haven't discovered in Germany and it's been over 50 years since the end of WWII.

I know they had secret bases on the moon, but this is just too unbelieveable.

Wouldn't it be cool if there were a couple of Ju 87s under there. I remember reading that out of some 5,700 produced, none survived the war.

Berlin, with its sandy, dry soil, was perfect for the bunker-building of the Third Reich. Hundreds of thousands of them were constructed during the 12-year lifespan of the Nazi government: for every one metre of building above ground in modern-day Berlin, there are three metres below ground.Didn't Saddam and Osama hire German engineers to design and build their bunkers? Sounds like our Middle Eastern "friends" hired the world experts of bunker building. And the Dimwits in DC think that it is unlikely that there are any WMD buried in Iraq! If you believe that hogwash, I've got a bridge to sell you in NYC.

Very cool.
It would be even cooler if they found a couple of HE-111 bombers.
The only surviving HE-111, which was owned by the Arizona branch of the Comemorative Air Force, was recently destroyed in a crash.

It would be cool if they found an He-111 there. My guess would be later planes though, hopefully they find some examples of a ME-262, Long Nosed 190, or He-162.
