Movie I.D.

[Hamburger Pimp]

Hey everybody.  I was thnking today about a movie I saw in the early 90s on TBS perhaps.  It is about a WWII bomber crew that crash lands in Africa.  They survive except one crew member.  They live in the desert for a while, and I forget most of what happens.  In the climax, set in the 1960s I think, a crew of scintists shows up and they we discove that the crew has actulley been dead the whole time, with the supposed missing crewman as the only survivor.  Then the scientists dig them all up except one, who it buried under the plane.   When they dig the guys up they cease being ghosts and the one guy is left alone.  I think that's pretty much the plot.  I remember that the ending was very abrupt, with the lead scientist racing to the desert because he realizes that the one crewman's body wasn't recoved.  Anybody have any idea what this could be?

Thanks,

H.P.
