Possible Success!!!!

We moved to the site that Paul Blaida has indicated all along should be the best likeness of the area that he can recall given that we have eliminated everywhere else. Divers went into the water while the Ocean Wrestler continues to scan. After 15 min, the divers returned to the surface with the first hard evidence we have had in 4 days. The metal is consistent with aircraft aluminum and after much discussion including Paul's input, everyone agrees we have found a piece of the aux fuel tank that was located in the bomb bay. The bomb bay was open when the aircraft touched down and likely was torn loose on impact. Everyone is very excited that we are now on the right trail! Underwater visibility is low, so the plan is to scan first and send divers down again soon. More to follow....................  0729-11.jpg (60073 bytes)
