RE: Aircraft wrecks in the sea
That’s unusual Ken, because aircraft disposal even for ‘bent’ airframes was usually through MOD.Why would a Sea Vixen be deliberately dumped in the sea for ‘training’unless the RN were using it for their own divers? Twenty SVs crashed between 1966 and 1973 so unless it went down earlier, then XS 581 was the only crash in the Portland area that I know of.
