In 1944, this Douglas Dauntless crashed into Lake Michigan after taking off from the USS Sable during training. In 1994, the team pulled the wreckage from the lake and began a 4 year restoration project from the ground up.

3 years in, the plane has taken shape and is in the process of being re-skinned with Baileigh metal shaping equipment.
