Great video can't hardly wait. I spoke with the cousin of a friend that pilots the larger ROV'S for NOA. He told me that the first two most important things when searching a known location. A search grid keyed on a known object. 2nd is the height off the bottom to maximize how far you can see but not loose general detail. He also said mark everything on the grid map even if it seems to be nothing. Now the individual grid size is your choice but he suggested a 10 meter by 10 meter grid space at 10 grids by 10 grids giving you 100 meters by 100 meters total. Larger gets harder to manage. Hope this was helpful. I sent him a link because he was very interested and loves the fact you are doing this. Well until the next adventure my friend.

While the Gladius did a wonderful job, it needs a retrieval arm on it. The Fi fish you have now would work great here as far as moving items around to see what they are. I kept looking at the tires and wondering if they still held air in them. I love the ways you present these videos. It’s not in the water and there it is. You actually show what it takes to find these items. I still search the screen trying to find the items with you.

I find myself scanning the whole screen search for items you may have missed. Am jealous that your able to do this. Even though am not physically there am mentally there with you. Wonderful to see shells rocks and fish and then out of nowhere tires. There are people who would just say they are just tires but they’re history and there is a story to be told. Great adventure.

After a brief google search the only twin main (single strut) aircraft in service on either side was the JU290. (kinda fits the bill) I can't find any American or British heavy Bombers that had twin main landing gear.......until the B-29. I'm no internationally know expert but I've studied aircraft most of my life and I just turned 60.

Definitely not an He 219 Ulh gear leg. The He 219 used smooth stamped steel wheels like almost all Luftwaffe aircraft made after 1942. Plus the gear leg of the He-219 has a trident shape to it. The FW-200 had double wheel main gear legs too but both wheels were mounted to one side of the gear leg and this gear leg has a wheel on each side. The fact that the rim looks to be cast not stamped and also appears to magnesium would lead me to believe it is off of an American made airplane. American manufactures used cast magnesium wheels on many aircraft during WWII. Most likely a bomber.

It's not Condor, the attachment to strut is from the outside on both sides of the wheels to the hub. And the scale is unknown however based on "cup" seen, I believe the Condor gear would be outside the frame at that distance, it's huge. The He-219 is a very good candidate and the "solid wheels only" mentioned is true for high percentage however might be a red herring, simple google search shows actual war time photo He-219 wheel with ribs. If you look at estimated size (which to me) indicates a smaller Aircraft than a heavy transport and or bomber, sizing suits more of Heavy Fighter type like an He-219. I do not think it is He-219 as the strut splits into two stronger frame pieces fairly close to the wheels. No treads so it's not "too new" and without knowing exact location difficult to figure which aircraft might have been used in that region. I'm leaning toward post war era.

Randy Hager Yes some ju288 did have two wheels paired on some of the models. From what I gathered dual wheels were less common. This video could indeed be showing such a wheel pattern. I’ll need to see if the photos I took at the air and space museum show the landing gears well enough to be a ju 288 or he 219. I shot so many photos that I cannot remember if I have one showing the landing gear. But a argument could also be made for it being a he 219. Or maybe this is from a more modern aircraft all together.

You should add a stick (with tape) to the bottom so you can "poke" stuff with it. You can also have a small scoop on the end for small to medium objects just sitting on the ground. Alternatively, you can have a magnet on the end of it and a line that goes to a buoy at the top so you can pick it up.

It wasn't unusual for wartime aircraft to suffer undercarriage droop if they suffered hydraulic damage. Having the landing gear dangling in the air flow when the aircraft is flying can easily put enough force on the undercarriage for it to be torn away and fall to earth, so the aircraft may not be down there... That undercarriage does look very much like that fitted to the upper of the two aircraft that you showed the picture of, so it might be instructive to see if any of them crash landed at any nearby airfields with missing landing gear...

Most Luftwaffe aircraft had single wheel landing gear instead of the two wheel set like you found, The Focke Wulf 200 had double wheels but a very different strut mechanism, I'm sure there are others I can't think of but I would think this is off of an Allied aircraft. Of course the best ay to know would be to dive down to it and look for an information plate on the strut, or to pull it up and inspect it closely. Whatever it's from, it's an awesome find! It would be really awesome if the rest of the aircraft could be found nearby and maybe provide an ending to an unknown story

The valve stem looks like one needed for a high pressure nitrogen inflating system. Any of those used in WW2?

Wheels could have been shot off but most likely came off when the 219 made a crash landing on the water. Wheels out could have helped to slow the aircraft down when it was trying to control the crash landing.

That looks like a nose wheel as its missing the 'heat packs' (basically disc brakes) and hydraulic hoses. Nose wheels are generally unbraked. The He 219 had a VERY long nosewheel. as you say MORE is under the bottom.

This is a tough one to research. I agree with Peter Horvath in the comments section, that the He 219 was a pretty rare bird, so I'm saying it could also be an He 177 which is less rare than that. But as we don't know the location of this item, there there is no place to start. If this is German occupied territory, then you would need to check airbases within, say, a 160km radius, to find out what aircraft were used, & the recorded losses, or if the site was of strategic importance & attacked by the Allies, then the type of aircraft they used, that would give you a starting point. Keep up the great work you do, in bringing "The WW2 timeframe" into our homes. Regards Rural Geeze.

Great video again. By the looks of it I see two possible undercarriages: the first one is the undercarriage of a Focke Wulf Condor (but the Iron legs don't seem to fit), and the second one is the main undercarriage of a Heinkel 219, as shown in the picture in your video ;-)
