B-17 Gallery: Images 4, 5, and 6 Forward Back Home

 

In 1998 UAS returned to Labrador in search of the lost B-17.
It was commonly believed the plane would be resting on the lake bottom.  Perplexed by the complete lack of any signs of the B-17 the search area was expanded.
Eventually the wreck was located ten miles down stream from Lake Dyke.  Resting in 20 feet of water the B-17 is in excelent shape.  Preserved by the cold fresh water this plane, when restored, will fly again.
