I was lucky enough to be invited on an expedition to video this wreck in the Red Sea.

Here is the trip report and video (http://www.divetheworld.com/Diving/Shipwrecks/HMSMyngsElQaher/index.htm).

I hope you like it.

Excellent vid yet again Steve.

Looks like a really nice wreck.

Fantastic footage.

Judging by the intact coral still on the wreck. I presume that it hasn't had many visits by divers as yet.

What depth is it in?

It's 22 to the bottom and part of the bow sticks out of the water. It's not been dived at all (or so they say) as you get hassled by the Egyptian Navy and we did get boarded. Perhaps Peter Collings has been there already. :D :D

I heard he was flying one of the jets. Stitched "PC woz ere" down the side in machine gun bullets. :D :D :D
