I had a tear in my eye watching this very sad but at the same time fascinating. I hope it stays there for good. Thanks for posting the video.
I'm going there for the first time on Sunday.

I have visited the site recently (2010) and the amount of wreckage is substantial, as shown in the video. Is it possible you visited the other Wellington (R1465) crash site near Fan y Big/Pen y Fan peaks. There is a similar memorial there but much less wreckage than the MF509 site. The R1465 was also crewed by RCA airmen and also crashed on a training flight. The R1465 memorial is marked on OS maps, but the MF509 is not.
Just a thought...

Kids do need to know about those who gave their lives for our freedom,but these sites only exist because most people who visit Don't take wreckage away with them,will you put it back where it belongs?

I wouldn't have thought so--from what I understand, the site is protected and of course, there is a permanent memorial there.
Thanks for watching the video...
