In a secluded corner of Vancouver Island, surrounded by swamps and forests, lies this abandoned Canso bomber plane who played a role in World War II. The plane crashed in February 1945 after suffering from an unexpected engine problem. The plane crashed in the forest and never flew again. Despite the fact that the plane had multiple depth charges on board, all 12 crew members survived.

American Douglas Super DC-3 In Sólheimasandur, Iceland
In the northern island of Iceland, there are volcanoes, glaciers, natural springs, and an abandoned airplane. The American Douglas Super DC-3 sits on a black sand beach near the town of Sólheimasandur and is its own kind of tourist attraction. This was one of the most well-known airplane crashes in history, and this is what remains of it. This American plane crashed in 1973 and while the entire crew survived, no one ever returned to take the plane back.
