"hotographs taken by a British fighter pilot during World War One which lay undeveloped for nearly 100 years have gone on show at a museum.
Captain William Chambers died aged 21 in a routine reconnaissance mission over France in May 1918 and his pictures never surfaced.
But they were developed when his nephew inherited them and showed them to a photographer in Lancashire.
The images depict daily life for pilots and include aerial shots over Kent."

I love this one. It looks like a coffin with a propeller on one end and a bug shield on the other. [X(]
