The engine is in snorkeling depth(<8m) and there is no airframe present. I’d suggest that it was recovered by the 4th ADG at the time of the loss. I have dived a deeper(15m) P-38 wreck at Port Moresby which was also recovered(only props, oil coolers and smaller items present). I also have an accident report for a 80th Fighter Squadron P-38 that ditched at Port Moresby that ends with,”water depth too deep for recovery.”This one is in 35m of water, so it wasn’t uncommon for the Fifth Air Force to recover underwater wrecks close to their major bases. I have a wartime pic of this falcon at Townsville’s Garbutt Aerodrome, if some one wants to post it for me? I can email it to the poster.
