-Flown into Vegas every year for the last 4 years and each time the level in Lake Mead has been dropping quite markedly - the almost white 'demarcation' band between the high and low (current) levels is very obvious.

-Is this aircraft a contender to be raised or is a B29 not a rare enough aircraft when so many other examples exist?
Best wishes

I believe that it is on National Park Service land and they may not be interested in a recovery unless someone can persuade them. No better time than now with the low water levels, even if it becomes static display for more Lake Mead visitors to see.

You mean the SW corner of USA.
There is more water in Sahara desert than in California/Nevada right now.

Lowering water levels have brought a drowned Superfortress within dive-able depth.
