Most boats that have vanished into Lake Ontario's depths have been forgotten over the years. Not so for the few airplanes that have gone to a watery grave in the lake.
Experts believe it is somewhere in relatively deep water.
Despite the best efforts of many divers over the years, the plane and its crew of eight has never been found. A little past 2 a.m. Feb. 18, the bomber radioed its home base at Westover Field, Mass., that it was circling above Syracuse municipal airport. It was reportedly dangerously low on fuel and unable to land due to poor visibility. The crew was ordered to bail out. News reports said radio monitors were keyed to the wavelength of the plane's radio.
