Thanks for all the help re: this mystery; Sounds like something def. happened, just not on Winni.

Dave @ Dive Winnipesaukee found parts of an old "military type" plane off Welch Is. a few years back.

BTW: Keep looking around Diamond Island... There's a lot more down there than you think. Actually, I'm surprised you haven't found it yet with your "Hi-Tec" stuff, but then again that's probably why you haven't. Sometimes you just have to get down and dirty to find the real good stuff.

Playing around on a check-out dive when my kids first were SCUBA certified a few years back we found a single seaplane pontoon east of the Lady of the Lake. Probably halfway between the LOTL and the shore.

Here is the file, and pictures of the only "Airworthy" F4U-1 (Dash 1) Corsair today. The Model went up through the F4U-5..(Dash 5) and beyond with other number designations. Think "Pappy Boyington" and the Black Sheep Squadron. ........ TV Series: BAA BAA Black Sheep.

Care to share a little more detail? Even via PM? That's a great dive site, and if there's more to find down there, I'd love to know. Thanks.
