On Monday 29th, my place of work, Capernwray Diving plan to sink the largest object in a inland dive site in the UK. G-BVOV a Hawker Siddley HS748 passenger airliner will slip (!) under the water. She has a 35m wingspan, and a 30m fuselage and weighs about 9 tons. We have hired the largest crane available in the area to lift her in!
I'll be on hand and in the water to catch this, both on still and video. Non diving spectators are welcome to come and see her last flight-the site will open at 10.00am and the plan is to start the lift at midday.
