The wreckage of a Vickers Viscount passenger plane which vanished in Ecuador 27 years ago has been discovered on the South American country's highest mountain.
Climbers on Mount Chimborazo fund the remains of the four-engine Saeta Airlines turbo prop plane at over 16,000 feet on the side of the volcano - 4000 feet below the summit.
When the Ecuadorian aircraft went missing in August, 1976 it was carrying 59 passenger on a flight from the city of Cuenca to the country's capital, Quito.
