A very interesting story Kevin,in particular the attached article regarding Flier survivor Al Jacobson. I noticed that the father-son team of Mike and Warren Fletcher are listed as involved in the discovery. They are well known among their fellow Canadians as a result of the T.V. series Sea Hunters and their association with adventure novelist Clive Cussler.

I have been a "fan" of Clive Cussler in the sense that he has inspired some outstanding diving activities, finding those "lost" ships and making huge contributions to naval history thereby, such as the Hunley search and discovery. I wish there were more out there like the teams he puts together and of course our forum dude, Kevin. So many historic ships...:)

I'd love to be out there myself...but with the injuries I've accrued, it ain't gonna happen, so we need those guys out there...
