A friend forwarded on an article about 4x4 adventures in Iceland today, and one of the images on the website was this "crashed" DC-3 hulk:

Following the link in the article, there are two other photos (I will just post the links):

The hulk is clearly marked United States Navy (possible RD-4?)

No serial numbers are visible...

Anyone know the story on this one? I know that DC-3s are not that uncommon, but it is interesting to see such a big hulk still sitting in the wild!

For those interested in the article about 4x4'ing in Iceland, here is the link to the rest of the photos (some amazing terrain there!)
