I get the 404 Cannot Find deal when I click on the link. I so wish these aircraft could be recovered, this example looks to be in great condition. Likely a controlled ditching?

I wonder if it was one of those aircraft "disposed of" after VJ Day by being taken out on a barge and shoved over the side.
