The wing you saw on the trailer is one from a lockheed venture, its was on its way from the ACAM to Trenton Ontario to be use in the restoration of Acams HudsonMK6, the wing came from armstong lake near contry habour, it has early American markings on it.

Has it been found?
There is a damaged wing, sitting on a DND trailer in Willow Park in Halifax. It’s grey, with an insignia……a star within a circle, does that sound like something from WW2 ?

If anyone is planning a search this fall for either the Harvard or the Hudson, please contact me. I would be more then willing to volunteer some time. I am a certified diver, have my own equipment, and could help anytime.

i guess my fingers were not cooperating above…what i meant to type was coordinates for the cross.

i’ve seen pictures of it and it doesn’t appear to be on an island but i’m wondering if you can walk to it from the dam/ fish ladder area.

If the plane is supposed to be in 14 meters of water , the west end of the lake below 2 mile lake David , has maybe 20-25 feet at the deepest, i have only seen over 40 feet in the main part of the lake which i referred to in my earlier comment. I have looked at those photos, and to me they seem to looking south/south west towards the cove just east of where blue mountain lake brook runs into gaspereau lake…. that’s the area i believe the Hudson is to be found.

i think the site is actually 200 -300 meters south / south east of where they have it marked on the above map i know there is over 40 feet of water where i say when the lake is high.

I noticed the post about the Harvard, we are diving in Grand Lake looking for equipment lost while trying to locate the plane. We are diving in Grand Lake this summer starting this week. We are from Shearwater and if you have a good idea where the Harvard is and willing to pass on the info we would like to take a look with our sonar equipment. Thank you.

The Land and Sea documentary was re-aired on CBC on Sunday July 11.
The documentary video is still available on CBC’s website, but with new address:

On July 7 I saw an armed forces diving team loading up “zodiacs”
at the boat ramp near the south end of the lake.
