Great dive off the South West side of Aruba. Two Plane wrecks, an intentionaly sunk DC 3 which sits at 68 feet, fully intact with her gear down like she landed there. Visibility was only about 40 feet, but standard for September in Aruba. Very strong current forced a second dive to see the second plane.
The second is in four pieces, drug smuggling airplane taht missed it’s landing and ran out of fuel.. Not nearly as good, or abbundant in sea life as the DC 3 "Air Aruba" wreck.
