According to the expedition’s leader, Dr. Robert Seigler, the retrieval of the now rare B–25C bomber took several days. Divers worked on mixed gases, at depth, to attach special straps on the aircraft. The technical team is being led by internationally–known aviation salver, Gary Larkins, who expects the entire operation (which includes the spray–down and disassembly of the aircraft) to take about two weeks. Larkins disassembled, rigged, and raised a P–38 Lightning from beneath 270 feet of a Greenland ice cap several years ago. He is regarded as the premier salver of historic airplanes, with some 68 to his credit worldwide. A model of the B-25 was created to assist in the recovery. Ezoic Seigler, who has written a history of the Lake Murray B–25s for Warbirds International , has spent two decades researching, locating, videotaping, and securing sidescan radar images of the aircraft. Divers have been quietly examining and documenting the airplane for the past several years in preparation for the retrieval. The final day of the airplane is well–known. After flying out of the Columbia Army Air Base on April 4, 1943, the now–rare B–25C Bomber crashed and sank in the man–made lake during a skip–bombing training mission. The military crew escaped the aircraft, which had lost power, and brought it to rest upright, with damage to only the right engine. The crew survived and were rescued. The US Army Air Corps was unable to salvage the aircraft during WWII because of water depth. It was finally located in 1990, virtually intact, under silt. ——————————————-found another story from 2020: The plane was mostly forgotten until the late 1980s, when aviation enthusiast and pediatric intensive care physician Dr. Robert Seigler decided to research the crashes that had taken place on Lake Murray during WWII. Seigler had grown up in Columbia, where he spent his summers swimming and waterskiing at the lake. Lakeshore residents told him about the B-25 crashes. “Nobody really knew how many actually went down there,” he recalled. He paid a law school student to go through the local newspapers looking for write-ups about plane crashes in the lake. That research effort turned up reports of five B-25s that had crashed during the war years. Newspaper accounts and government reports documented four of the wrecks, leaving the whereabouts of one aircraft unaccounted for.In the early 1990s, after a Navy Reserve sonar team found indications of a sunken aircraft, Seigler hired a civilian sonar crew to search that area of the lake. After several attempts, the team found the remains of Fallon’s plane nestled in the silt at the bottom of the lake at a depth of 147 feet. Seigler—along with John Hodge, a commercial airline pilot and environmental attorney, and Bill Vartorella, an international marketing and fundraising specialist—then started planning a method to recover the aircraft.Vartorella recalled that there were myriad problems and details that had to be dealt with before actual recovery work could begin. “We had environmental issues that had to be addressed, since there were hydraulic fluids and aviation gas still on board the plane,” he said. In addition, representatives from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms had to be involved because of the machine guns on the sunken hulk. Hodge worked through the legal entanglements and secured salvage rights from the owners of the lake, South Carolina Electric and Gas Company. With funds and legal details worked out, the ad hoc nonprofit organization, dubbed The Lake Murray B-25 Rescue Project Inc., hired aviation salvage expert Gary Larkin and his team to recover the plane. Once the bomber’s surface had been stabilized, the recovery crew set to work dismantling the plane for transport to the museum’s restoration facility in Birmingham, Ala. It was decided that the best way to move the B-25 was to unbolt the center section of the fuselage at the wing roots from the rest of the airframe. The cockpit and bombardier’s position would be in one piece, the wings and center fuselage would be in the second section and the tail and rear portion of the airframe would make up a third segment. Jim Griffin, the museum’s director, recalled that once the B-25 reached Birmingham the first task was to clean and determine the condition of the nose and cockpit section. After scooping out more mud and silt, restorers found a treasure trove of WWII artifacts. “When we removed the instrument panel, one of our workers found the co-pilot’s wrist watch with an inscription on the back,” Griffin said. The engraving reads: “Ruth to Bob 3-5-43” (Bob Davison, who had served as the co-pilot).Other items found in the cockpit included navigation instruments, radios, a pilot’s map case, nylon seat belts and buckles and the bill of the bombardier’s cap. The maps, preserved in the pilot’s case, were still readable and in excellent condition. Griffin explained that some of the B-25’s skin was seriously corroded in places, meaning that cleaning and restoration could only be carried out with plain water, using dental tools.A particularly significant find was the rare underside machine-gun turret. “This turret was only fitted to a few B-25s,” Griffin noted. The 600-pound gun mount has been removed from the aircraft’s belly and, after restoration, will be displayed in a special case. It is believed to be the only one of its kind in existence.At present only the nose section of the aircraft is on display at the museum. Plans include stabilizing the rest of the airframe to prevent further corrosion, and then reassembling the remaining parts. Asked about a complete restoration, Griffin said, “We’d have to replace about 95 percent of the parts to restore this aircraft to its original condition. But I don’t think that’s what our visitors want us to do.”The Southern Museum of Flight is building a new exhibit hall where the reassembled B-25 will eventually be displayed on a specially designed sand base, with lighting to make the aircraft look as though it is still resting on the bottom of Lake Murray. “I think we all want to see this aircraft for what it really is: a fallen warrior,” Griffin said.
