Does anyone out there know of any interesting wrecks on Kodiak Island, Alaska, and their locations? I am heading out there in a few weeks, and want to take some photographs... which I will share of course.

All the best,
Richard

Dear Col. Rohr,

If you wish information on the Canadian Heritage Act, then contact Capt. Mike Rozak, Canadian Air Force, at <Rozak.MJ2@forces.gc.ca> Seems anything greater than 50 years old is covered by the Act. This means museums have the opportunity to block export of any item/ material they consider historic to Canada's aviation history.

Ask Capt. Mike Rozak and he will either fax or e-mail you a copy of the act.

This post seems to have been hijacked. Please, if anyone has any details about wrecks on Kodiak I'd like to know. Not interested in doing any recoveries, just in documenting them, if possible.

Cheers,
Richard

....but what does the Canadian gouvernment have to do with anything found on Kodiak Island that would be an American issue wouldn't?

Col Rohr did you get my PM of a few days ago?

Sincerely Gerry
