RE: DC-3 Crashes in Venezuela
It is so sad………….but it`s a money problem with the airline I think.
But things can go wrong anytime…..
We have the “Dutch Dakota Assosation” they treat their planes like babies,
and even then things can go wrong,
a few years ago they lost their flagship PH-DDA in a tragig crash with a lot of people
on board who just enjoyed a sunny day on the dutch island of Texel.
Some part of the prop-feathering broke off placing the props on one side in a position
where they caught all the wind they could!
and then the plane went down.
So I think it is also a very big portion of bad luck,as the DDA maintains their planes
maybe better than big airlines!!!!
