Plane crash San Felipe Airport Colombia

 An Aero modifications AMI DC3 65 TP crashed on the 8th April at San Felipe airport with 6 people onboard. There was no loss of life after the aircrafts landing gear collapsed.

 Nothing too unusal you say, and thats true.... except this aircraft running a regular passenger service isn't a new aircraft, in fact it's 78 years old.  No thats not a missprint, it first flew in 1944!

 Thats bloody old. You dont see many cars from 1944 even at shows dedicated to classic cars, this plane is carrying paying passengers FFS!  There really needs to be some sort of age limit for things flying over our heads and houses, even in places like Colombia.
