HelloDave.
I cant remember exact dates but they did dig down and although the sonar image showed intaqct fuselages laying in the ground wrapped in burlap, the lime content? in the soil had corroded them into dust and it was this faint aluminum trace outline of the aircraft that showed up on the radar image. I thibnk it was at one of the wartime lincolnshire uk lancaster bases
