SALVAGE
DAKOTA
Sydney, May 10, Australia's Air Minister, Mr William McMahon, announced today that strenuous efforts would be made to raise from the seabed a Dakota plane lost in October 1952 with Elx lives.
He said the Air Force had devised special equipment for raising the plane, which would be a difficult job as the wreckage was in 70 fathoms (420 feel),
The Sunday newspaper Truth
kad stated there was a belief that the plane, which was on a rain-maiting research night off the New South Wales coast, was sabotaged with a time bomb and exploded in mid-s[r].
A theory at the time of the disaster was that the Dakota had flown into a water spout during
rainstorm. Two
