Sea-Tech?
A "perfectly intact" Mosquito discovered off the coast of Malta? It's like Piccadilly Circus for divers there, and no one has found a mossie? I'm not saying it's impossible, just unlikely, especially a perfectly intact wooden aircraft glued together in warm salty water. Are we sure he doesn't mean the Blenheim? Also, I notice, that in spite of being informed to the contrary,they still have the "North Sea Bomber" picture on their website (Lake Washington Privateer to the rest of us)
Anyway, I wish them luck.
