I thought they would bring up some rusted out lump what was left of that Rolls Royce Merlin amazing that the engine was in such good shape. Looks like it could be restored to running condition. Lancaster was built in Briton not the US the engine is a Rolls-Royce Merlin XX V12 produced 1280HP.

I believe that Packard did not build the Merlin engine that was recovered. If it was a license - built Packard Merlin, it would have been built in the USA. This Merlin was built by Rolls Royce in the UK.

Hi, I use a very thin stainless steel probe 8 mm that is extendable with segment of 120 cm. Very simple but effective for locating and depths. But must say that it's probably most usuable because the soft soil in our area.
