I have wreck dived in #Malta four times now and still have never visited the #Bristol #Beaufighter. Succumb 17th March #80 years ago in 1943, she rests at some 39m off #Sliema. Let’s plan a #dive for our visit in #September huh?

Looking forward to seeing more of your art :) Do you happen to have anything #Beaufighter or #Mosquito related? :) #RAF Fighter Command night fighter squadrons from WWII era are one area of #AviationHistory I'm particularly fond of :)
