Great news!

Ah so it's in salt water. That's terrible for duralumin and other alloys based on aluminum. I don't hope so, but it could break apart while they attempt to surface it. I once took pictures of the remains of a Jumo 211, found in the Waddenzee north of The Netherlands.

I think it has enough structure to hold, but some parts are all but gone.
Engines are probably mostly gone.

The good news is 17z's where built before the war, so material is better quality.
