More Malabar Princess.....
I was there last year, and that glacier is not a safe place to be...
A lot of other debris has been found over the years. Another Malabar Princess engine found? - Chamonix news Cinquante ans après le crash, il trouve le coeur du Malabar Princess | Tribune de Genève Train d'atterrissage du Malabar Princess (récupéré le 04/08/1987) on Flickr - Photo Sharing! |
Malabar Princess
Curios ?, Malabar Princess was an Air India Constellation, but in the above post & the link to:
"Malabar Princess another engine found" The picture shows a flat 6 piston engine, possibly Lycoming or TCM (Continental) so are there any other aircraft remains on the glacier ? although could the Constellation have used something similiar as an onboard APU ?. any idea ?, Paul H. |
Wouldn't surprise me if all sorts of aircraft hadn't hit that hill at one time or another. I saw that purported "R-3350" photo and was amused that that's what they thought it was. Obviously from a GA aircraft or air taxi.
