Used for scaring away birds over shrimp farms, this plane used to spend a lot of time in this area. Unfortunately she crashed in heavy rain and poor visibility and ended up upside down in a shrimp basin. The accident proved fatal, on the 25th of January 2016. (Nikon D610 + Nikkor 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5G ED AF-S)
