A team of people with some sort of sonar found more of them than they thought were there.

You know I don't really get the big deal these are just models of the Arrow, sure historically significant but nothing that can't be learned from blue prints. The images I saw where crusted with muscles and barely looked like an airplane.

Ya it was a great plane, it makes me sad thinking what this countries aerospace industry would be today if some spineless twit wasn't in charge at the time.

In 1958, my father was flying a T-33 over Trenton and
joined up and flew formation with 201, I think it was.

He said it was quite an airplane.
