501292 Sergeant W H Bartlett RAF No. 12 Squadron (d.7th July 1943) Does anyone know if Lancaster ED548 of No. 12 Squadron was recovered from the River Forth after crashing near the Kincardine Bridge on the 7/7/1943 whilst taking part in a cross country flight? I know that Sgt W H Bartlett (air gunner) and Sdn Ldr R G L Baxter, pilot both died in the accident and are both buried in Gransable cemetery. The reason I am asking is that I am a interested in aircraft and have my own company using ROVs to do under water videos and inspections, and if this Lancaster is still down at the bottom of the Forth I would like to film it for future archives.
