Indeed :agree:

I posted the same link as AD a while ago :)

The aircraft was fairly new at the time and all that really seems to have happened in the cold atmosphere is that it's lost the white paint and most of the red on the tail.

There is a crashed Avro York out on the tundra, reasonable complete a few years ago and more recoverable but it's big country and it seems to have started breaking up since.

That is shown in that pic set too
