A very unfortunate Turbo Thrush just ended up here in the bushes minutes before we landed. At the time the cause of this excursion was unknown. The frame suffered considerable damage!

Wearing a different livery since her incident. See the image in the AirHistory.net database of her mishap at Samuel Quimi airfield. It's great to see her back together again!

Quite a surprise when we arrived at Samuel Quimi (Barbones) due to a minor hiccup in our plane, only to find this Thrush lying in the banana plants! For reasons unknown, the pilot lost his bearing and parked in the ditch. Considerable damage, but hopefully repairable. Thanks Juliana for helping with this pic, and what a registration; something like CFIT! Dataplate checked by myself.

Just about to taxi away, fully loaded. A new livery, compared to her (accident) picture in the data base. Dataplate checked by myself. (Nikon D610 + Nikkor 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5G ED AF-S)
