Lesson 66   Sweet as honey!

In 1963 aLancaster bomber crashed on Wallis Island, a remote place in the South Pacific,a long way west of Samoa. The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over theyears, the crash was forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed. Then in1989, twenty-six years after the crash, the plane was accidentally rediscoveredin an aerial survey of the island. By this time, a Lancaster bomber inreasonable condition was rare and worth rescuing. The French authorities hadthe plane packaged and moved in parts back to France. Now a group ofenthusiasts are going to have the plane restored. It has four Rolls-RoyceMerlin engines, but the group will need to have only three of them rebuilt.Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases andfound that the fourth engine was sweet as honey -- still in perfect condition.A colony of bees had turned the engine into a hive and it was totally preservedin beeswax!
