There are more airplanes in the ocean, than submarines in the sky.

a lot of good people burred at sea ,
I'm sure there are more boats under the water than on top of the water, too.
never fly over water
In the movie, "Jaws 2," the shark dragged a helicopter into the water.
In "Jaws 4," Michael Caine's character ditched a nice twin-engine Cessna into the water.
Were those aircraft left to sink to the bottom, or were they recovered?
Pull that old DC-3 up,let it drain a couple of days,new batteries,oil and clean fuel and its good to go.
Great photos, Thank You for sharing !
Captain Oveur: You ever been in a cockpit before?
Joey: No sir, I've never been up in a plane before.
Captain Oveur: You ever seen a grown man naked? ... 🤣🤣🤣
I wonder how many of those DC-3s are still flying.
Birds, we just can't begin thanking you enough for that info.
I know it too many, many hours of research🙃
I absolutely love the Airplane! movies, and ones like them.
Did you guys notice the big hole in the prop on pic $12 (near the top of prop)? It may be a .50 caliber, but it might be bigger. It's hard to judge scale underwater.
