hi

iknow of the wreckages of the anson wellington and vampire in this area but i came across information that said aircraft remains were pulled from the lake by the mod some years ago.i know in some cases wreckage was buried near the site of a crash could this be the anson with the same idea but rather than dig a hole it was dumped in the lake as the crash was very close to it.

regards
