Default parts from the Dauntless SDB

Yes it is. The aircraft is being cleaned up so it can be restored for the D
Day Museum in New Orleans. They figure it will take three years to finish.
I took some pics of it today and will post them soonest, Tom

Yesterday after the Blue Angel practice session I stopped at the
Dauntless SDB. On the tarp under the aircraft I saw some parts and
pieces that looked important. Here's a shot of a small plate from the
instrument panel. I took it and some other pieces into the
restoration building where they were safely stored away for future
use.

Is this the SBD that was recently pulled from the Lake Michigan ?
