On April 24, 1945, RAF Halifax NA337 ditched in Lake Mjøsa, Norway after being hit by enemy flak. During the summer of 1995, the Halifax Aircraft Association and volunteers from Canada and Norway raised the bomber from the bottom of the lake. Over the next ten years the aircraft was completely restored. Unveiled at the National Air Force Museum of Canada in Trenton Ont. in November 2005, it is the only complete Handley Page Halifax on display.
