Bong wasn't flying "Marge" the day the aircraft was lost. Apparentlt he only had her a short time and there were no kills in this particular ship.
At any rate I have met two highly credible and knowledgeable sources who maintain the wreck of Marge is still there. Going up soon to check it out. Will let you know.
