Canadian Wrecks
In this months Air Pictorial (March 2002) there is a small
piece about some aircraft wrecks in Labrador and
Newfoundland.
Among them mentioned was:
Digby 739 lost Jul 1942 and found again in 1951 (crew
recovered 1956)
Hudson BW719 lost Dec 43, found July 1948
2 * B-24: 42-95146 (missing May 1st 1944 - found 1945) and
44-48788 (missing Oct 6 1944 - found 1951) which crashed in Mealy
Mountains
The aircraft evidently remain much the same as when found
due to remoteness of crash site.. The Digby is supposed to
have been intact minus the front.
