i saw a crashed Japanese fighter plane when i was visiting Hawaii, on Oahu. There is a park with a cliff, sometimes called suicide cliff or lovers leap (something like that). I walked along the path, then followed a stream up almost 1/2 mile - then saw the downed plane parts. Very cool, do not know how many people are aware of it. But that is one place to look. Has anyone else seen it? carcare@pcnet911.com
