Fate of sea recovered P-47 thunderbolts

Mon Nov 23, 2015 2:01 pm

Hi All ,
In 2009 a P-47 hulk was recovered by Italian fishermen from the Adriatic sea , I think it went to the aero club Ferrarin for a 2 or 3 year restoration before display, I can't find any trace of it post 2009, did it ever get restored ?.
The second P47 I can't find any trace of is the one Rick Lee recovered from the gulf of Mexico maybe 20 years ago now ?.
Any news on either or any photo's would be great.
Many thanks Station 342.
