Philip Bradley 1997

 

 

Mission History
Crashed on Ballale Island. Possibly SBD 11002 or SBD 35976.

Wreckage
Photographed by Phil Bradley in 1997, a tail hook, wing dive flaps and Sperry gyroscope were observed.

Justin Taylan adds:
"I searched for this wreckage in 2003 and 2005 and was unable to find it.  I am sure it is still there, but its a portion of the island where there is no GPS signal to get a firm waypoint."
