Sólheimasandur Plane Wreck

On 21 November 1973, a Douglas C-117D transport aircraft operated by the United States Navy crashed onto Sólheimasandur beach in southern Iceland during severe icing conditions. All seven crewmembers on board survived the accident, and the aircraft was written off.

 

Today she is a tourist attraction but has suffered damage from these tourists as well as the elements.
