Curtiss C-46

“Miss Piggy”, a Curtiss C-46 Commando which crash landed in November 1979.

The plane was affectionately named because of the sheer abundance of cargo it was able to carry, also at one stage it did have a cargo of pigs.

It came to rest on a rocky cliff after topping a few trees and taking out power lines. Fortunately there were no fatalities but two of the three crew were seriously injured.
