“For nearly 80 years, a Second World War-era B-24 Liberator Bomber has rested at the bottom of Gander Lake, Newfoundland, where it crashed upon takeoff on Sept. 4, 1943, taking with it the four souls aboard. Seventy-nine years and one day later, an international team of divers supported by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, the Shipwreck Preservation Society of Newfoundland and Labrador and Ocean Quest Adventures located and positively identified the wreck.
Dubbed “Liberator 589D,” the aircraft lies on a steep ledge nearly 50 metres below the surface in near-freezing temperatures (six degrees Celsius). At the time of the crash in 1943, search and salvage missions were conducted by military divers in hard hats but abandoned after the wreck slipped into deeper water. “
