Another Halifax found deep in a Norweigan Fjiord

[aeropilot]

Looks like it could be substantially intact too...

Might be a challenge to bring up though as it's quite deep....

'Halifax bomber was used by the British to sink the battleship Tirpitz.'

Reporting fail.

Seems it might possibly be this one from location info and underwater clips etc.

So likely a war grave, so it's staying where it is most likely.

Looks to be in great condition, mind 180m down in cold water it's hardly surprising. Raising it would be a logistical nightmare never mind the implications of the fact it's probably a war grave as well.

Looks quite spectacular. The fuselage looks badly corroded in places - or perhaps that could be fire damage - so it is probably very, very fragile.

Next to some of the recent finds, this one looks quite fragile. Some of the German aircraft have been amazing intact down to almost original paint still showing.
