At Wars end,new P51s and alike had axes put through them and dumped off
the Queensland coast …exact location, I do not remember.
Various bits of airframe have been bought up over the years.

ABC News is going with Corsair: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-08-10/sunken-machine-guns-probably-from-us-warplane/4190208?section=qld
Too bad the Ambassidor of the Sunshine Coast is no longer around to help clear up the ID.

Makes me wonder where the rest of it is and is it in the same condition?
