Helldiver discovered in San Diego's lower Otay Resevoir

This might be old news, but it was discovered in July of this year.

Old news

Currently going though the motions. Second assessment dive at some stage (check the completeness and structural integrity) then all of the paperwork and permits etc.

Families of pilot and passenger have been discovered.

Construction card and accident card located.

I am sure the museum at Pensacola would want one - they lost the one they had on display as it went back to the NASM.

Hopefully with sponsorship and paperwork in place she will be recovered early 2010.

regards

MS
