I think a lot depends on the depth and salinity...

I'm no expert by any means, but I always enjoy reading about underwater archaeology... it seems that the deeper the wreck, the quicker the unfortunate victims completely disappear. Don't forget the wrecks of Truk Lagoon are still manned with the bones of hundreds of crewmen even today.
It would be nice to see this set a precedent, in having the gunner returned and properly interred as well as having the aircraft recovered and restored. Win-win situation in my book, but that's just me.
