The wreckage of a lost plane may soon be found, bringing closure to a mysterious tale in the history of the United States Air Force.
Shipwreck-hunting divers of the Deeper Dorset group are currently searching along the floor of the English Channel for a USAF C-130 Hercules transport, tail code number 37789.
While plane wrecks aren’t all that uncommon (the channel is littered with aircraft lost during the Second World War, after all), 37789 has a curious twist to how it ended up at the bottom of the English Channel- it was stolen by a homesick mechanic trying to fly home.
