It looks like the radios and something else is missing from the dash board. (Do they call them dash boards on aircraft?) Did people dive on this machine in the past and pull stuff off of it?

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the plane will eventually be displayed to represent the way it was found on the bottom of the lake.

I guess then if that is the case then it'll go on display next week :lol: Actually I recall reading from an interview from the team leader, that the aircraft would be fully restored but with the stipulation that it never fly again.
