Allthough fortunatly the crew and cargo loader escaped un-harmed SJU based Four-Star cargo lost a DC-3 yesterday, Sunday 4-26 in a odd accident. A cockpit fire developed on taxi out at SJU and the crew was unable to extenguish.
Check out the sad but wild photo of the aftermath at the bottom of the report.

That's wild Ron! Got her head cut off!
That sure is sad to see, but glad that the crew got out safely.
That's sad to hear but at least the crew made it out of the incident alright. It's always a pleasure to see those Four Star 3's around SJU.
I caught her in SJU back in November:

As others have said said but glad crew made it out.
What a sad piece of news :(
However, I want you to be reassured, our DC-3 (F-AZTE) is getting its turbines fixed for the meetings season ! This one is not gonna be grounded tomorrow ;)
