The Crashed WWII Plane Hidden In A Coral Reef | Search For The Mystery Bomber | Timeline

More than 200 Allied planes crashed in Australia’s north during World War Two. Some are still missing, their exact whereabouts still unknown – all the crew died in the crashes. No survivors, no witnesses, no position to report. Now, Australian marine explorer Ben Cropp is lifting the veil on at least one of these lost warbirds.

He’s found the sunken wing of a four-engine WWII bomber lying beside a coral reef. His team will return to the site, armed with all the knowledge they can gather to correctly identify it and perhaps lay to rest the aircrew that died in the crash.
