I can't speak for anyone else, but I know that the fact that it was a intact wartime Lanc on the bottom of that Lake and I had the money, I'd be interested.

To me, that's the key on those kinds of possible discoveries. That there is a wartime story to the aircraft would make it worth the gamble to raise and restore.

That any might be found and not raised for lack of interest would be a tragedy to me as they are pieces of the actual conflict with much more history to them then a similar aircraft without the combat history.
