Question

What happened to the p-38 ww2 plane they found on the welsh coast.?

Answer 1

Well since the other poster can't seem to actually answer the question...

The plan is to remove it from the beach, clean it up, and set it up in a Welsh museum.

FlyPast magazine has been following the story.

Answer 2

Sixty-five years after it ran out of gas and crash-landed on a beach in Wales, an American P-38 fighter plane has emerged from the surf and sand where it lay buried - a World War II relic long forgotten by the U.S. government and unknown to the British public.

During those decades, beach strollers, sunbathers and swimmers were often within a few yards of the aircraft, utterly unaware of its existence just under the sand. Only this past summer did it suddenly reappear due to unusual conditions that caused the sands to shift and erode.

The startling revelation of the Lockheed "Lightning" fighter, with its distinctive twin-boom design, has stirred considerable interest in British aviation circles and among officials of the country's aircraft museums, ready to reclaim yet another artifact from history's greatest armed conflict.

Very interesting, see sight below for full details !

Answer 3

Adding on to Gromit's answer. A group of Americans from an organization is trying to claim the aircraft.
