This is one of an He-115 found intact in a lake that at one time was its base. It sank during the war its amazing the preservation they found rations with the writing still legible.

I think the Ju88 was recovered in Norway, the Bf109E was in India, but is now "somewhere in England" :) , not sure about the B25.

The intact B-25 is in Australia and photographed by a visiting defence force crew in the 1970's it was later recovered to the Northern Territory Aviation Heritage Centre at Darwin where it is under static restoration.
