I had no idea this was still around - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWaUnlji7GE

The Zero footage starts at about 12:30 - I guess it was in rough enough shape to begin with that no warbird collector felt it was worth trying to purchase from the CNMI ?

Pacific Wrecks documents the Zero (s/n unknown) as well as a G3M Nell at the airfield. The runway is still used.

I think this is the Nell: https://pacificwrecks.com/aircraft/g3m/3617.html

Too bad this was not recovered in the 1970s while it was still intact.
