SOLHEIMASANDUR, ICELAND, SEPTEMBER 4, 2019: Famous plane wreck on Solheimasandur beach #161462341
Description
In 1973 a US Navy DC-3 ran out of fuel and crashed on the black sand of the Solheimasandur near Vik on the Icelandic South Coast. All passengers survived but the dc-3 plane wreck remained on the beach. It was never removed and always stayed right there. There are various stories going around on the web about the true cause of the crash but the fuel is one, another one is that is was heavily icing which caused the plane to crash. Whatever the cause of the accident may have been, itââ¬â¢s a very picturesque spot for photography when traveling along Icelandââ¬â¢s South Coast. Iceland, Europe
