Crashed Dornier 328 In Southern New Jersey
Next time you’re walking around the Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey, keep your eyes peeled for this Dornier 328, which used to be a passenger airplane that flew all around Europe, which you can see from the German flag that is painted on its sides. There are many Dornier crashes around Europe, but it’s a big mystery how this one ended up in New Jersey. Some people think it was brought here on purpose to be used for paintball.
U.S. McDonnell-Douglas DC-10 In The Philippines
In June 1991, the Philippines experienced the second-largest volcanic eruption of the 2oth century on Mount Pinatubo. The United States Air Force and Filipino disaster relief came together to help families in the evacuation, but this plane was unable to escape in time. It’s currently sitting at Cubi Point where the United States Naval Air Station used to be. The base closed the next year because even though the United States Navy cleaned up the mess, there was too much damage to keep the base open.
