norway skua
I was on a team of RAF divers that surveyed a Skua, the the Flap held by the son of the pilot was recovered from the shore line. most of the aircraft is in about 20m of water. The engine, wing and cockpit floor can be clearly seen. The EMRU is open so the bomb came off before the crash. As I recall when we started tis project we thought it was a different Skua from the raid, but the parachute harness buckle still in the closed position proved it to be L2995 which stopped the recovery of any bits nand turn into a hands off survey.
I have the report, photographs and drawings if anybody is intrested.
