    Apologies if this was posted before, but I haven't found any hits by searching.

    Last year AirBus prepared to demolish an old WW2 building on their property and discovered "a filing cabinet full of more than 22,000 aperture cards" reportedly detailing the entire development history of the Mosquito. These are now in the possession of the People's Mosquito charity, and will eliminate the need to reverse-engineer the parts needed to restore aircraft.

    More info and some images of diagrams here:

    To me, this is just ... beautiful.
