Notes:

This wreckage was a C-47 from USA Navy that came down at 24 Nov, 1973 due to bad weather conditions. The costs to take it out to a better place were so high that the owners decided to leave it here. As a tourist and aiplane enthusiastic, its a perfect sight, even being a 8 km walk thru there. The GPS coordinates are 63.459523,-19.364618.
