There were divers from diving Folla who found the wreck in the summer. They had leitt for aircraft for many years. Wreck was found with a mini-submarine, and the atmosphere was great when the wreck appeared.

- It was crazy, it was completely silent for two seconds. After the crash the loose, said Hilfred Mikalsen the Folla Dykkerklubb NRK Trøndelag in summer.

See pictures: Did German fighter
Planning underway
When the plane crashed jagar, it was on its way north on reconnaissance along with two other machines. Over Rørvik had the engine problem.

- It fell, but the pilot managed to fix it before it took the water surface. He came out and was rescued by a woman who lived on an island in the vicinity, says Mikalsen.

This spring the museum starts planning the rescue operation.

- We have made a preliminary work plan for April and May next year, but early in the project have not talked to all those involved yet, "says Larsen.

good vid on mossies being built and flown...( the dragging the bomb behind the truck was rather pythonish tho....) some of the footage is the same as dave's but maybe a little clearer (seems like this footage is used a lot)



combat mossie footage...the music sucks but you have a volume control.




mossies shoot up a sub and other ships




mossies and spits..nice low level buzz job...
