From Mario:
"This is a photo of Massimiliano (Archaeological Diver and Vice-President of the
Diving School of Bolsena) and me returning from shooting video this morning. I'm on the right side. Starting operations at 05.30 am. These days high temperature."
Mario has also sent me a picture that he will publish at a later time. If I understand him correctly, it is definitive proof that they have found the B-17, not the B-24. I'm not good enough with aircraft ID to confirm this. I'm sure the group will publish all their findings in due course.
In the second e-mail, Mario said: "Today we talked on the phone with the widow of one of the divers of the 1960 expedition. She told us that the mission was just to find the Crew, but we understood she knows other things as well."
