Actually two people were injured one broken leg the copilot and the other a passanger. The plane was blown off the runway by a 55 mile an hour cross wind 30 minutes after I landed in the same type plane. The storm that crashed the plane lasted for 3 days. It was called a Hawk. A D55 tractor was sent to find the plane and it fell into the cravas between the annual ice and regular ice. All the tents they set up were blown away. they stayed in the plane until help came. The generator shack near where I was staying blew up because of the winds and all the lights went out in the Galley I was in. Now that was a nice greeting to Antarctica.

Hi, I was in the Antarctic in the summer of '69 and am sure that this was the same aircraft that crashed on Williams field the summer before. Would love to know when this picture was taken as we (at Scott Base) all expected it to drift out and eventually drop off the ice shelf into the sea, long before now. Can anyone tell when this picture was taken..? if anyone can help, e-mail me on haydond@ihug.co.nz Thanks

Hey, Polar Mike! Thanks for sharing all these photos. They are great and I really appreciate the opportunity to visit Antarctica vicariously through your photos.
Most of us will never have the opportunity to visit Antarctica in person, so your sharing your photos is a great gift to us. Thanks!
Warm Regards,
Robert
