Whoa! Stop The Presses!
In Reference to:
"I once read about one of those old ones, 3C or something, that got
dropped from a plane onto a desert in the US. Apparently, it still
worked fine and the film was ok, once developed.
There's our Leica myth for the morning, eh ?"
As a Massive Mythbusters Fan and History Buff from way back, they'd take away
my 'Geek' Union Card if I didn't "frantically" call out for
details-details-details on that myth!
It's got Cameras - which i love!
It's got Airplanes - which I love!
It calls out to be tracked down in some way or another!
Anyone on the list know more on the mythical aerial dropped leica story being
referenced?
Sincerely - but half tongue in cheekily,
Richard in Michigan

So, did that one go from MINT- to GOOD USER in one helluva hurry ?
One nice thing about Leicas is that, no matter what they look like, they're
tough. I once read about one of those old ones, 3C or something, that got
dropped from a plane onto a desert in the US. Apparently, it still worked fine
and the film was ok, once developed.
