Default f6f pulled from lake Michigan

http://www.nwitimes.com/news/state-a...537274f62.html

they were supposed to have moved it from the lake this weekend or
today, but haven't heard anything yet. Seems on approach and landing,
arrestor cable broke and it went over the side.

There were some local photographs, will keep looking for a copy on the
internet of them, there was some wing tip damage but other than that
was in pretty good shape all things considering.
