It seems the Hellenic Air Force Museum is at it again -- planning yet another underwater historic aircraft recovery. They've been busy lately, bringing up a Ju-52 and the remains of a Stuka in just the last few years.
If anyone knows or learns anything more, please post it here!

Oh look, someone found a warbird buried and sand and they are going to actually DO something about it!

Worth checking the Hellenic Air Force website occasionally to see when info is posted on this one. It's in English as well as Greek!
