draganm Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 it's in excellent condition for a crashed plane, unfortunately recovering aircraft form the ocean is tremendously expensive. It takes years of sitting under a neutralizing spray to pull the salt out of the aluminum and if that isn't done all you wind up with is a pile of white powder. there is a ocean-salvaged Dornier Do17 in the UK that has been under resto for 4 years but the best ones seem to come out of Fjords in Norway, low salt-low oxygen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surveyor Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 The colour side scan picture is fantastic, great what they can pick up these days, just trying to get page translated as it appears as though it could be a good read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
