A buddy of mine sent me this link today...
http://www.naxosdiving.com/content/view/64/97/lang,en/
...showing the wreckage of a WWII Beaufighter discovered on the seabed off the Greek island of Naxos.
Anybody have any more history/info?

Looks like the crew got out.
I say haul her up. What does this bring the Beaufighter population up to?
Would be awesome to find this girl's history?

With the low preserved population, it's almost a shame not to bring this one up. Looks relatively intact.
