If you\u2019re an experienced scuba diver, Hawaii is heaven. Beautiful waters, interesting animals and \u2026 long-lost airplanes? The Corsair Airplane Wreck is one of Oahu\u2019s most famous wrecks and has been underwater since 1946, when a pilot abandoned it after experiencing engine problems during exercises.<\/p>\n
While relatively small, the plane is mostly intact \u2013 a rarity in itself! Divers can take amazing photos with a cockpit seat you can still sit in, and a propeller that remains standing tall. Words to the wise: Be careful of eels and rays \u2013 they are known to guard their adopted \u201chome.\u201d<\/p>\n
