Discovery Chanel junkie

Post by sparky »

Ok being a big Discovery Chanel Junkie that I am

I was surffing the chanels on my sat-lalite. when I come agross Mega Builders and got to se how they went about sinking that hudge air plane
up in BC.

this is a realy cool show I wish I would have known it was going to be on I would have recorded it

I have seen other shows that the Reef Builders have done

I would realy like to dive this site some day it looks like it would be so cool to dive in and around this air plane

any one else catch this show ? and if so what did you think?

It was a 737, MUCH smaller plane than a 747, thougha 747 would be cool, 2 decks.

Going to have to set my recorder.

I keep wishing we could grab one from the bone yard and drop it in off Mukilteo. Be a good spot, nice and deep, with some current to keep it from getting really silty.
