Hello, I work at a dive center on island Vis. We had a RAF airport on the island during ww2 that was used as a half way point for bombers flying from Italy to mainland Europe. Lots of spare parts could be found around the island, and i guessed that a propeler blade in front of the dive center was from there. But yesterday I learned that it was actualy caught by a dredge net along with a whole engine, others were melted down unfortunately so this is the last one. Around the island we have 40+ plane wrecks still missing, by now we only found 4 B-24s (one of them the fameous "Tulsamerican" Where we dive | Wreck diving Croatia | Cave and cavern diving Island Vis | Diving spots Croatia | Underwater photos | Diving Croatia) and 1 B-17 (Where we dive | Wreck diving Croatia | Cave and cavern diving Island Vis | Diving spots Croatia | Underwater photos | Diving Croatia)
It would be amazing if it was possible to determine from which plane this came, on the bottom of the prop i can find this markings:
DWG 6477A- O CHG D HSP 5- MFG No. P 169241
SHANK 6155 CHG. M
