Norwegian Team Hunting for Roald Amundsen's Lost Plane
A Norwegian team is set to embark on an expedition to find the submerged wreck of a plane which carried Norway's great polar explorer Roald Amundsen.
Amundsen was aboard a Latham 47 sea plane when the aircraft disappeared over the sea on its way to the Arctic island of Spitsbergen in 1928.
Two ships will set sail from the Norwegian city of Tromso on Monday to begin the two-week expedition.
The team will use an underwater robot to scan for the plane using sonar.
