What a great way to honor the men that served on it. Making it a world attraction in the Med

Would love to see this, an honor for Malta, a suitable resting place for Illustrious and a godsend for the diving fraternity and tourists. Just one thing, please could you amend the word "stationery" to "stationAry". The word you have here means envelopes, paper etc.

It will also further cement the link that the Maltese have always had with the British services

Great idea so long as it's done in the right location and depth for easy access.

The link between Malta and the name HMS Illustrious is a strong one. Either Malta or Scapa Flow should be the scuttling site.
