Orca Maritime, in conjunction with L3 Ocean Server, worked on a Discovery Channel production of Expedition Unknown. A survey was conducted offshore of Los Angeles International Airport to look or the P-51 Mustang flown by Women Airforce Service Pilot Gertrude “Tommy” Tompkins who disappeared after taking off from the then Mines Field.

The AUV sonar data was processed and targets of interest were marked for Orca Maritime’s ROV to inspect. Technical divers were on standby to take a closer look at anything that the ROV discovered.
