Hi Pen Pusher,

That looks like it'll fit the bill nicely, as long as you give him some Flippers!!
Well done anyway.

I hope my next is always better

Don't forget some bubbles, reminds me of Jacques Cousteau, or if your even older Hans and Loti Hass.
Sorry about the spelling.

Seen from above, a diver pauses over the empty cockpit of a heavily encrusted Mitsubishi Zero lying seventeen metres below the surface of Jammer Bay,  a few miles of the south coast of New Britain Island, Papua New Guinea.
Lost on 17th April 1944 the aircraft, serial number 4213 has survived remarkably well due to the low salt content in this part of the ocean. Only colour is changed by the depth.
