Project Petlyakov PE-2 FT 
BLHF and the Norwegian Museum of Air Defence have several years ago recovered the wreck of a PE-2 bomber from the last war.
The airplane was collected from the mountains close to Hamningberg in Finnmark. Together with parts from four other wrecks, this gives us the possibility of having a structurally complete aircraft.
Already we have restored both engines and are well under way with the front section of the airplane.
