Douglas DC-3 Wreck - Iceland

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

Top AirVuz contributor FreD ./. brings us this stunning drone video of one of the most iconic sites of Iceland: the abandoned wreck of a US Navy DC-3 airplane.  In 1973, the plane ran out of fuel and crashed on Sólheimasandur, a black sand beach on the island's southern coast.  While the plane's crew survived the ordeal, the wreckage was left in place.  It's not the easiest place to reach (or even find) - there are no nearby roads, and even the ruggedest 4WD vehicles can get stuck in the sand.
