A mysterious plane buried in more than a meter of sand on west shore of Mexican coast. Many different stories exist about the presence of the plane in that place, some say the plane was used by nako-trafficking and shot by the Mexican army, others say they had to make an emergency landing, others that there was no drugs involved in this story at all.

An Antonov AN-26 cargo plane belonging to the Polish carrier Exin has suffered a takeoff accident at Tallinn Ülemiste airport (Estonia). None of the four crew members were injured. The flight failed to take off when the gear collapsed or retracted during takeoff. The airplane skidded to a stop on its belly. This is the second Exin crash at the airport in five months.

The AN-26 plane that belongs to a Polish company and carried DHL packages terminated its landing procedure after its landing gear did not function and tried to pick up height, but failed when its engine failed and fell to the ice.

The plane had a crew of 6 persons on board made an emergency landing. According to authorities, no-one was injured in the incident.

Snow clearing equipment is currently cleaning a path to the plane that is relatively close to the lake shore. Because of arriving rescue vehicles, there is a major traffic congestion near the airport.

The authorities have started investigation of the incident.

Lake Ülemiste is the main drinking water reservoir for Tallinn.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/antonov-an-26-plane-that-crashed-on-a-lemiste-lake-2010/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/antonov-an-26-plane-that-crashed-on-a-lemiste-lake-2010/ Tue, 15 May 2012 13:48:21 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/antonov-an-26-plane-that-crashed-on-a-lemiste-lake-2010/ 59.41575900 24.86002200 <![CDATA[Jomsom Airport]]>

An SR-71A Blackbird (no.61-7970) crashed at this location in the desert east of El Paso on 17 June 1970. The spyplane had been receiving fuel from a KC-135 when it suddenly pitched downward. The pilot then over-corrected causing the Blackbird to strike the underside of the tanker. Both Blackbird crewmen ejected and parachuted to safety as the stricken SR-71 fell to earth. The KC-135 was able to land at its home base (Beale AFB) with the damaged refueling boom dragging the runway.
The military removed most of the wreckage from the crash site then filled the impact crater, but many small pieces of the plane remain scattered in the desert.

B-36 crash site

On 11 December 1953 a massive Convair B-36D 'Peacemaker' (serial number 44-92071A) crashed into the Franklin Mountains at El Paso, Texas while on approach to Biggs AFB. It was a snowy day in El Paso and low clouds completely hid the mountains from view. That fact combined with a confused and disoriented pilot, who apparenly refused to believe what ground control was telling him, contributed to the accident in which nine men died.
The giant bomber was flying in a NNE heading at an altitude of about 5200 feet when its right wing made contact with the mountain. The fuselage and left wing continued in the NNE heading across a ravine, slamming into a wall of solid rock on the other side.
Two pieces of the B-36 can be seen in the thumbnail, both from the right wing: one of the plane's jet engines (the white object at bottom center) and one of the main landing gears (the long shadow at top right). This photo shows the same scene from ground level: http://images.summitpost.org/original/457596.JPG
The left landing gear, not visible in the thumbnail, can be seen about 120 yards (111 meters) north of the jet engine just to the left of the terminal wall. There are many thousands of other pieces of the B-36 still on the mountain overlooking the West Side of El Paso, ranging in size from the three pieces mentioned above to tiny ones a few millimeters across or less.
The pilot and four of the crew who died in this crash had been involved in an earlier incident in England: They had flown a B-36 across the Atlantic but were unable to land at their intended destination due to fog, ran low on fuel, and, unbelievably, parachuted to safety, allowing the huge plane to fly unmanned for 30 minutes over the English countryside before crashing into a field without harm to human life. The British were understandably upset.

B-29 Superfortress 44-62276 crash
[Info] [GM] [BM] [YM]

On the morning of 17 January 1949, Boeing B-29 Superfortress 44-62276 of the 301st Bomb Group, 15th US Air Group, took off from RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire, England, on a return trip to her airfield at Smoky Hill Air Force Base (AFB), Salinas, Kansas, with twenty passengers and crew on board, accompanied by a similar aircraft. The crew were reported to be on leave, having previously been involved in the Berlin Airlift, dropping supplies into the city which had bee blockaded by Soviet forces.

The planned route was overland via Scotland, then on to Keflavik, Iceland, where they would stop to refuel and take on supplies. The weather was variable, and as the two aircraft reached Strathclyde, falling temperatures and cloud began to cause icing of their wings and control surfaces. The pilot of the second B-29, Captain Donald E Riggs, decided conditions had become too severe to continue, and turned back for Scampton. Unfortunately, there is no record of the circumstances surrounding the first aircraft, piloted by 1/Lt Sheldon C Craigmyle. At 09:50, the B-29 crashed into the side of Stob na Boine Druim-fhinn, a hill in Succoth Glen, near Lochgoilhead, Argyll, spreading wreckage in the valley between Stob na Boine and Beinn Tharsuinn. All twenty passengers and crew perished, with the aircraft being consumed by the resultant fire.

The subsequent inquiry was unable to determine the exact cause of the accident, but the adverse weather and heavy icing were deemed to be contributory factors.

Abandoned PBY-5A Catalina seaplane
[Info] [GM] [BM] [YM]
By: kjfitz
@ 2009-07-30 10:36:57
The aircraft is a PBY-5A model and was bought from the US Navy by Thomas W Kendall, a retired businessman who converted it to a luxury flying yacht.

In the spring of 1960 Mr Kendall took a pleasure trip around the world with his wife and children together with his secretary and her son. A photographer joined the group to cover part of the trip for life magazine.

On the 22nd March 1960 they landed at the Strait of Tirana and anchored the aircraft a short distance from the shore to spend the night there. They heard someone shouting but did not pay any attention.

In the afternoon of the following day they were attacked with machine guns and automatic firearms from a headland nearby. The children were able to swim back to the aircraft. Mr Kendal and his secretary were wounded while trying to start the Catalina but moved it about 800 metres, unfortunately it ran aground on a coral reef.

The firing lasted 30 to 40 minutes and no fewer than 300 shots hit the aircraft. The fuel tanks were perforated and 4000 litres of fuel poured from the holes but miraculously the aircraft did not catch fire. The sea was only about 1.5 meters deep and all aboard managed to leave the aircraft and reach the shore.

On the beach they were captured by a group of Bedouins attached to the Saudi Arabian army, who had taken them to be Israeli commandos. They were eventually taken to Jeddah, interrogated and finally set free with the help of the American Ambassador. The Ambassador protested to the Saudi Arabian government but they refused to accept any liability for the attack and consequent loss of the aircraft.]]>

FACh 960 made a forced landing on a site near the present location of the "house" in 1976, with the fuselage being moved later by a local who assembled part of his house with it. It seems the plane may have been suffered more damage after the eruption of Chaitén Volcano.

The Lady Be Good was an American B-24D Liberator of the United States Army Air Forces, serial number 41-24301, during World War II. Based at Benina Airfield in Soluch (today Suluq), Libya, it crashed in April 1943 returning from a mission and was later discovered hundreds of miles into the Sahara with its crew mysteriously missing.

Following an April 4, 1943 bombing raid on Naples, Italy, conducted by the 376th Bomb Group, the Lady Be Good of the 514th Bomb Squadron failed to return to base. After attempts to locate the plane in Libya, its nine crewmen were classified as MIA, and presumed dead, believed to have perished after crashing in the Mediterranean.

In August 1994, the remains of the craft were recovered by a team led by Dr. Fadel Ali Mohammed and taken to a military base in Tobruk for safekeeping.]]>

Crashed on January 2, 1944 as a result of damage incurred during an attack on the Japanese airbase of Taroa. Two of the crew members died during or as a result of the crash and were buried on Arno. Eight of the crew members survived and were housed and fed by the Marshallese on Arno Atoll from January 3 to January 16, 1944, on which date a Japanese patrol boat arrived from Taroa and captured them. The airmen were taken to Maloelap Atoll where they remained until January 20, 1944.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/wreckage-of-b-24-liberator-st-quentin-quail/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/wreckage-of-b-24-liberator-st-quentin-quail/ Sat, 12 Jul 2008 00:45:51 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/wreckage-of-b-24-liberator-st-quentin-quail/ 7.00334400 171.67293700 <![CDATA[Remains of Pan Am Flight 103 (blown up over Lockerbie)]]>

The explosion of a reactor at the Chernobyl power station, Ukraine, in April of 1986 was the worst civilian nuclear disaster in history. A radioactive cloud burst from the reactor and contaminated Ukraine, Belarus, and neighboring parts of Russia before the wind carried it all over Europe. The 120 surrounding districts were evacuated, though belatedly. The precise number of victims remains unknown today, but it is estimated that several million people are suffering from illnesses linked to radiation, such as cancer and immune deficiencies. In December 2000, the power station’s last reactor—which had remained in service to supply 9 per cent of the country’s electricity—was finally shut down in exchange for $2.3 billion in Western aid, which will allow two new nuclear facilities to be built. The nuclear industry has not yet resolved the problem of disposing of waste that will remain highly radioactive for many years. This waste, produced by 433 reactors in thirty-two countries, accumulates in storage centres.]]>

Flying over 2,200 miles unescorted, this bomber participated in America's first mission in New Guinea. Over Rabaul, the crew elected to go around for second run after a malfunction. Intercepted by fighters, it force landed in a swamp in northern New Guinea. Swamp Ghost is the nickname this bomber has come to be known around the world.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/wreck-of-the-b-17e-swamp-ghost/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/wreck-of-the-b-17e-swamp-ghost/ Tue, 20 Nov 2007 16:33:35 -0800 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/wreck-of-the-b-17e-swamp-ghost/ -9.19806600 148.66176900 <![CDATA[Burned out KODA Air Cargo Boeing 707]]>

Hours after loading some 33 tons of of textiles and plastic goods, a fire broke out causing significant structural damage to the hull. No injuries reported. It took 4 hours to extinguish the flames. The aircraft is believed to be a hull loss.

To see it, you need to download the kml layer. New images of the area (after the disappearance)

http://s3.amazonaws.com/fossett/geoeye-color.kml

Looks like a plane in flight due to the ghost color behind the plane.

Steve Fosset's plane is a "Bellanca Super Decathlon"
